Lobster costs are skyrocketing

From the Boston Globe,

(I will post the story if there is a firewall issue)

Actually, I had one lobster roll in the Harvard Square (about 6 months ago) which was about $35. A beer and a tip. We are talking about $60 a lobster roll meal.

I noticed they were about $12/lb at market basket the other day - I was surprised. They came in late last year too, so could be a pricy spring.

whao. have never seen prices that high.

I was at Deuxave for lunch on Marathon Monday when they served that $49 lobster roll. Didn’t expect to see it in the news…

On the other hand, crawfish was $3.99/lb last weekend at Market Basket; crawfish boil here I come. (Yes, I know it’s not as good as the live ones but this is good enough given the price point.)
