I made this fancy lobster dish for the first time. I was so nervous I’d destroy the lobster 😅

    Looks like your plating style is contentious for many.

    Appearances aside, what really matters is that you nailed the timing on the lobster.

  2. I really like it and I don’t dislike the plating, but I think it could use a sauce drizzled around it for color and interest. Just a simple lemon butter or something.

  3. It looks lovely and nicely cooked – great job. It might be awkward to eat as the tail is a little more firm and chewier than the claws. I’d use the big claw for this dish which is sweeter and more tender, and looks dramatic:) I’m from Nova Scotia so we are spoiled with fresh lobster. Personally, I prefer lobster meat fresh out of the shell dipped in butter, or chopped and tossed for salad or a lobster roll. Maybe lobster poutine.

    Nice clean plates with consistent portions and presentation, if you’re able to do that repeatedly and have time to worry about the cook on the lobster it was probably delicious

    Edit: try to improve your plating by thinking of it as a production line. You have rice cooling down, a sideways lobster tail, and micro greens wilting hot food all at once, it’s disorganized. Plate all the rice then all the protein then garnish and sell it.

  5. Are you trying to make it look like more food than it is? I don’t understand an empty shell on this rice lobster tail tower

    I don’t really know what’s happening there but it does look delicious lol.

    First thing I would do is separate all of these items and get some sauce to add to it.
