I ate at Red Lobster once. I didn't eat Lobster, and come to think of it what I ate wasn't Red either. Wonder why they call it RED LOBSTER?

I recommend the cheese chunks dipped in butter, then fried, rolled in breadcrumbs with cheese and butter. Get the cheese sauce on the side. Andf of course, the Chocolate Cheesecake Insanity Bombe for dessert.

If I enjoyed eating pre-measured and frozen seafood dinners, I'd much rather stay at home and eat a Stouffer's in the comfort of my own home. On the other hand, I enjoy going out and eating really good fresh seafood. That eliminates Red Lobster.

They make those poor popcorn shrimp live in little wooden cages barely big enough to move in. They should be boycotted.

Use an SPF of 45 and you won't be a Red Lobster.

Believe it or not, the same company that owns Reb Lobster also owns the Olive Garden. <BR><BR>Their motto is "Large Portions of Tasteless Food, Loaded with Saturated Fat, for Everyone!"

I don't eat at Red Lobster. Nobody goes there because it is too crowded.

Red Lobster is really good. Try the Crab Alfredo sometime you'll love it!

Both my son and his friend stayed up all night vomiting after a Red Lobster dinner. And it was very expensive for the quality and quantity of the food. Our local one has now closed. And I would believe it's the same as Olive Garden---the restaurant for someone who knows absolutely NOTHING about Italian food. Oh yuck!

Lou Oct 4th, 2002 04:48 PM

I may vomit if I hear you mention your son one more time.

I know it's cool to trash Red Lobster but I do like those heart attack cheese garlic biscuits. They should just sell those.

Don't look for a Red Lobster in N.E...there aren't any here... it's bad enough we have Olive Gardens when there are so many family italian run restaurants.. The story goes that somebody was opening a Red Lobster in N.H. and had a press opening and when the owner asked a guest what he thought of the food the answer was..."this is the worst garbage',,,,,he never opened it to the public....

I had some Red Ants crawling up my leg the other day, but I never thought to open up a restaurant.
