Lobster

[Erik The Viking]

Obviously Womble you had a lobster while you were away, was it expensive? we were going to have a big fish supper in Marmaris last year with lobster and a selection of fish. The trouble was the guy on the front door would not commit to a price and just kept saying ' i do good price' but would not say how much.

i dont mind doing a ton if its going to be the muts nuts but im not going to be shafted for a meal!

Anyone else had experience of lobster in Icmeler or Marmaris?

I reckon well over 100 lira for that one

[WOMBLE]

Well I can say that it weighed 1.5 kilo
more than enough for two
with drinks £60
to me thats good in summer would say if you buy cook yourself
£40 should cover it
Its a guideline Turan showed me his invoice he mad a tenner and reckons about £80 in summer
Suprisingly they are in short supply and they are large Cray not Lobster but hey who cares Fantastic meal

Surprisingly sea food is expensive in Turkey unlike Spain.

I have been to the fish market quite afew times so know the prices and you should never order sea food in Turkey without getting the price first

Exactamundo, thats why i kept asking the price, and come in 'make you good price' is not what i want to hear. a hundred is good for me

thanks y'all

Hiya
It was FLORIDA BAR
ICMELER
I asked the price prior to ordering two days before#
given £80
Turan aka Jack contacted his supplier gave me firm price for 1.25-1.50 kilo Cray thats what they are not Lobster as we know it
Hence £60 showed me invoice he made a tenner plus our drinks
Grab the chance because we love it

I have never tasted Lobster, but I would love to. Quite a lot of money to pay just incase I dont like it. So if any of you are there in June and eating Lobster, let me know and I will come and have a wee taste of yours

I thought I would give lobster a go once, but the waiter took me to the tank and told me to choose which one I wanted I just didnt have the heart to pick one

[WOMBLE]

Nah Reesy & Lynn
If you like crab you will def like Lobster
we had a Mediterranean salad Diced fried potatoes with sliced onion in it
2 dips they do that for you
We were pigs cos we love Lobster Or shold say Cray cos thats what they are in this part of the world
The meal would have fed 4 people but you would have to have starters
Our afters were Pancakes and cream yum yum

Hi Womble

Saw the pictures of your meal Turks dont do small portions do they.

Jack in the Florida should be paying you commission I think his sales of lobster will be up this season after your report and photos
