Salty Lobster & The Waitress
Q: Dear Hope, My wife and I recently ate at (a
well-known seafood restaurant). The grilled lobster was very
salty. Do lobster get salty from whence they came? That was the
excuse we got from the waitress when I suggested she tell the
chef (cook) not to salt the lobster as it was being grilled.
I almost laughed in her face. Who is right? Sincerely, Clark
Ogle
A: That is either the worst or funniest explanation
I've ever heard for being served food that was over-salted in
a restaurant. Even though lobster live in salt water, their flesh
certainly does not absorb the salt as the waitress apparently
was suggesting. If your lobster was too salty, it was because
of a heavy-handed line cook. Vindication is yours Clark, you
were right, not the waitress with the "fish tale"!
