Well, we splurged tonight. The last 3 or 4 weeks has seen some great seafood specials at Stu Leonard's. 3 weeks ago they had maine lobster tails for $3.99 EA. And then Maine lobsters for 5.99/lb and the other day it was lobster claws.
Made a sauce w/ butter, garlic, white wine, onions, clam juice, and the usual Italian seasoning, parsley, oregano, basil, Red pepper flakes and a little bit of corn starch as a thickener.
Some PEI mussels, little neck clams, and of course the lobster claws. Made the sauce first and added the seafood in the last 5 minutes.
Topped the plate off with some EVOO, grana padono, crushed red pepper and fresh basil from a pot in our front window. I went back for seconds and it wiped me out, but I'm happy!!!! :D ;D
I'm done for the night! All have a great evening, .. Lou
PS the pasta was imported.
I know what I'm cooking tomorrow. Slurp slurp slurp. Wish we could lobster that cheap. Dominick

Dominick, intended or not, I'm now officially using "lobster" as a verb for eatin' 'em. I share your feelings on the matter.
Very Nice Lou.
You know how to live. :P
I've never heard of Stu Leonard's. Where do you live that you get lobster tails for $4 a pound? Maybe I should move!
I'm in Ct. Mark. The lobster tails were 3.99 ea. Whole lobsters were on sale twice, once at 4.99 and the second time around was $5.99/lb.
We don't usually shop there as its a bit on the pricey side, but when the have a sale or unadvertised specials its really good!
They had broccoli that day for .69/lb.
Oh ya, they give lots of free food samples and on the way out they have an ice cream bar and huge grilled hot dogs 2 for $4.00
They make a lot of stuff right on the premises so you can see and sample.
And there you have it!
Regards, .. Lou

Lou; Same prices here for Lobster, but we don't have a market like that, that serves samples and Ice cream and Hot dogs. I'm glad they don't or else I would spend every day at the market ::) ;D
That is a great looking dish you have there!
Joe
The other day Joe they were making fresh mozzarella and I got a sample with sun dried tomatoes.
Yum!!!! I actually had a pretty good slice of pie there too. 2 slices and a large soda was $5.00. The slices were huge and had to be 10 or more inches across the back.
It was a white pizza with fresh muzz, ricotta, fresh tomato, spinach and garlic.
