Also called “blue Lobster”, with dark and blueish tones, it lives on the western coast of Europe. The amount of this lobster captured on our coast is insufficient to satisfy all appreciators of this crustacean, creating the necessity to go to the French and English Coast, where they abound. Many consider it the King Shellfish.
Try it boiled, grilled or the good old-fashioned Portuguese way: a magnificent European lobster rice with broth from its fish bones.
