Cooked lobster meat

The lobster Homarus americanus is a crustacean commonly known as American lobster or Canadian lobster.

It has a greenish-bronze back and an orange belly, unlike its European cousin with a blue back and a pinkish-white belly. Its shell often has many dark spots. The underside of its rostrum is provided with small teeth, which also distinguishes it from the European lobster with a smooth rostrum. Its white flesh, pink-orange on the surface, is firm and dense.
It is caught from May to June and from August to September in zone F.A.O. 21 (North-West Atlantic), using traps.

The absence of any chemical treatment allows its taste qualities to be fully expressed.
It is MSC certified.
We sell it different presentations: claw, leg, joint and body meat.
Enjoy it in salads, sandwiches, cassolettes, or highlighted in a display.
