I heard the same story a while ago. I know what the problem was - NO DRAWN MELTED BUTTER!

If you love lobster, you owe yourself a visit to the Nordic Lodge in RI. This place goes through like 7K lobsters a week. They offer an "all you can eat" lobster/seafood dinner. Don't like claws? They'll give you just tails...

you can find live maine lobstahs on the internet. $7.50 a piece for a medium sized bugger.. The problem is it will cost you $70 to ship the little guy. Lets say we want to invite friends over for new years.. Okay we order 6 of them.. now shipping is $86 to my front door. Hmmm... I think I will pass..

Nah, it's only like $70 a person for all you can eat. The place has a beautiful pond and horses. They limit seating to two hours, but that is twice as long as you'll need. Literally, there's a lobster on your plate within 2 minutes of sitting down. The lobster pot is 20' from your table.

I have been 3 times there and would go more, but I am too full on the ride home One time we went jogging during our seating session half way through to make more room.
