Thanks for any info. Tue Sep 01 19:20:37 -0700 2009 17316 robotcoupe 1 5002012 heard the prices were steep. 11.95/lb? you can do better a fairway...

No doubt its cheaper if you buy it at Fairway, but its cheaper at any supermarket as compared to a restaurant.

Very good quality. I don't know anything about this Buttermilk Channel thing the OP is referring to though. Is it some kind of special cookout?

Thu Sep 03 09:51:25 -0700 2009 5002162 12118 jdf 4 5002329 The Red Hook Lobster Pound lobster is a Friday night special at Buttermilk Channel. It is in addition to the regular menu. Both my son & husband have had it and loved it. I'm not sure about the pricing.
