Moomduck1 Posted February 13, 2018 #1 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Hi I have an odd question. If one orders lobster, will the lobster be live or will it already be in pieces? We are traveling with someone who is a vegetarian. She will freak if a live lobster is killed right in front of her. We wouldn't order it, but as we are a party of four I'm assuming we will be sitting with strangers who might order it. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare KeithJenner Posted February 13, 2018 #4 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Actually, I wasn’t really thinking properly when I replied, but it actually doesn’t come out at all these days. You get Shrimp now, not Lobster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare L1211 Posted February 13, 2018 #5 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Isn't lobster gone from teppanyaki? I think it's shrimp now. It was 6 months ago? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is the current menu from last week https://www.ncl.com/sites/default/files/18372__Teppanyaki%20Breakaway%20web.pdf I’ve not heard reports of lobster being available for quite a while, so I suspect that’s a fairly recent change. Your link didn’t work for me. Is it shrimp or lobster that you can get with the steak on that menu? Personally, I prefer shrimp but I imagine some people will be happy if they change that back to lobster.

I just looked again and I am wrong, for some reason I typed shrimp, nmybrain in action lol. They still offer fillet mignon and jumbo shrimp. I went for the sea scallops and jumbo shrimp. The link is in PDF form so maybe that is why not working for you. If you go to NCL website they have the current menu, that is where the link is from.

Oakman58 Posted February 13, 2018 #12 Share Posted February 13, 2018 That's interesting and it must be a very recent change.. We were on the Star on a PC cruise in December and then on the Jade a few weeks ago (Jan 22 cruise) and there was only shrimp on the menu on both cruises. Here's a picture of the menu we had on both cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We cruised again in 2017 and no lobster at Cagney’s but I believe we got lobster at Teppanyaki’s as a combination both years.

Love my butler Posted February 13, 2018 #20 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Lobster costs a lot of money. The NCL bean counters have taken action. No lobster for you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeyetlse Posted February 13, 2018 #21 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Do teppanyaki restaurants in the US typically have live lobsters that they kill in front of you? Seems to me that most people wouldn't like that, and not just the vegetarians. Anyway, the cruise fare you pay on NCL, and the cover charge at Teppanyaki, is nowhere near high enough for there to be live lobsters. If you're very lucky, you might get dead, thawed-out lobsters. The most gruesome thing I can think of on board, foodwise, is when they have whole roasted piglets in the buffet, with the head. The OP might want to warn their vegetarian friend to steer clear of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
