Waterfront Lobster Boil

OVERVIEW

Enjoy a hearty lobster boil at The Flavor on the Water Beer Garden, a popular outdoor venue that looks out over Sydney’s historical waterfront. Locally caught, ethically and sustainably harvested lobsters are always available on Cape Breton Island. They are among the world’s tastiest lobsters because of the favorable environmental conditions that impact their flavor. These crustaceans are cooked in every way imaginable but as you will discover firsthand boiling them may be the most classic preparation. A chef will demonstrate how it is traditionally done on the island. Afterwards, a local musician and lobster expert will demonstrate how to properly shuck a lobster after it is boiled. He will also regale you with entertaining songs about life along the eastern coast of Canada and how lobstering has changed over the years. Your lobster lunch comes with melted butter, a side of potato salad and a beverage.
