  • About

Lobster has been all my daughters’ favorite food. I can remember as if it were yesterday when Isabella was a little girl in the Islas del Rosario, where she would carry the live animals by their “whiskers” to have them cooked and eaten as fast as they were caught. They are normally trapped in wire mesh boxes or cages that are dropped and kept on the surface of the ocean floor. Every day, lobsters would be brought in to cook and eat fresh.
