Bluewater Stuffs the Lobster instead of the Bird
11.12.19
Bluewater Grill is offering its holiday advice for seafood lovers looking for something unique this time of year: Stuff the Lobster Instead of the Bird! Its annual New England-style lobster celebrations are so popular, they’re hosting two events this year!
Stuffed Maine Lobster is a classic family feast that originated in Boston-area seafood restaurants and has since become a popular New England holiday tradition.
Holiday Baked Stuffed Maine Lobster -- Tuesday, Nov. 12, at 5:30 p.m. ($45 all-inclusive price for special feast + wine pairing). Bluewater chefs will serve a whole Maine lobster stuffed with a special shrimp and buttery panko-crumb stuffing and served with choice of New England or Manhattan Clam Chowder, two sides, unlimited fresh sourdough bread and a Bluewater bib for just $45. Paired with the feast will be two hand-picked Sauvignon Blancs, Oyster Bay from New Zealand, and a St. Supery from Napa Valley.
Holiday Baked Stuffed Maine Lobster ENCORE – Tuesday, Dec. 10, at 5:30 p.m. ($45 all-inclusive price for special feast + wine pairing). Their annual holiday feast has proven so popular over the years, we’re officially scheduling an encore event now so customers can make their holiday plans. For those that can’t make it in November, Bluewater chefs will repeat the classic feast paired with two hand-picked Sauvignon Blancs, Oyster Bay from New Zealand, and a St. Supery from Napa Valley for just $45.
Bluewater Grill Newport Beach in Cannery Village is at 620 Lido Park Drive in Newport Beach. 949.675.3474
