Lobsters are for every occasion; they can be cooked anytime of the year because Maine has been offering the world’s finest picks in abundance. Each day, thousands of this clawed variety is fetched out from the deep oceans. With most Mainers relying on lobster fishing, you can imagine how well-known Maine lobsters really are. 

The delicate flavor of clawed lobsters picked from the ocean floors of the Atlantic, make them a superb choice as gourmet cuisines; so why not take your mom for a plush oceanic dinner ride on Mother’s day? Though your plans seem too early for a “next year” Mother’s day celebration, you can of course go ahead with your thoughts if you don’t want to end up in a last-minute mess. 

Ordering a Mothers day dinner for two

Now, the lobster dinners are meant for those who rarely get the time to jumpstart with their culinary skills. A lot of online sellers are now offering delicious ready to cook lobster preparations that can be served to two, four or even six people at a time. The servings primarily differ to tailor requirements of foodies. Like for example, the Jumbo lobster tail dinner for two seems perfect for the mother-daughter duo. There is also a Maine lobster dinner for six to serve all your family members. 

If you still insist on cooking Maine lobsters on your own then go for a surf and turf lettuce wrap, a luxurious recipe, entailing a generous proportion of filet mignon and fresh meat of a black point Maine lobster. The recipe also accompanies a lot of veggies to cover up for the fatty contents. 

A super saucy lobster meal can’t simply do without the herbed lobster roll. It’s buttery, juicy and delicious and is paired with brioche rolls. 

If you want something more, you can simply go for the lobster paella Valencia for indulging in a Spanish treat. The mussels, the fleshy chicken thighs coupled with Maine lobsters make a perfect mother’s day dinner. 

Fine dining with mom becomes unforgettable when you lay your hands on curry lobster roll with shaved vegetables. The cilantro and lime juice add to an Asiatic essence which you may miss on lobster dishes prepared in a continental way. Actually, the cilantro adds to a certain refreshing essence.

Now, as the month of March has approached, every person residing in different corners of the world is gearing up to celebrate Mother’s day. 

This day is commemorated as a date to celebrate mother’s love.

A Lavish Seafood Treat for Mom Who Means the World



I have never questioned myself on whether my mother has given me every happiness of life; simply because I am alive because of her and she has gifted me an entire life and taught me to be who I am today. I owe everything to my dear mother. She has given me birth and is my sole support even if I am busy with work. 

Whenever I sit and recollect my childhood memories, I see so many things she has given me; so many times she has saved me and so many moments she has stood by me. I am proud to be her daughter because she is my guardian angel. 

This mother’s day I am thinking of gifting her something special. No, I can’t afford a beach trip, neither can I afford a luxury dinner for four at a 5 star restaurant; all I can do is to prepare some great food that will taste as good as those served in eateries.  

Now, that I am her little girl, it is quite obvious of me to know her tastes. Yes, she loves to hog on seafood and loves it more when prepared at home. 

So, this Mother’s day I will add a sentimental touch to the luscious dinner menu. Considering her emotional nature, she might as well shed a tear or two to find out that I have taken the initiative to prepare for her a grand lobster dinner on Mothers day.  Now, I have a recipe and I am going to share it with daughters from across the world, who loves their mother like no one else. 

This one is called baked and stuffed lobster. Here it is for you Mom:

  • Unsalted butter, 8 tbsp (extra 3 tbsp for brushing)
  • Coarsely chopped onion, 2 tbsp
  • Tarragon leaves picked and chopped coarsely, 2 tbsp
  • Italian Parsley leaved picked and chopped, 2 tbsp
  • Shrimps shelled, 4 oz
  • Black pepper (freshly ground)
  • Kosher salt
  • Hand-picked live Maine lobsters, 2
  • Crackers, 3 oz
Preheat an oven to around 425°F. Firstly take a medium skillet and heat it over medium flame. Now, melt 8 tbsp of butter. Next, add onion and cook them till they turn tender and brown. Add the parsley and tarragon and stir them well. Add the shrimps and cook the herby mixture. Keep the mixture aside and let it cool. Season the mixture with pepper and salt. 

Now, take a cleaver to half lobsters lengthwise. Eliminate the intestine and head sac and remove tomalley along with the roe. Next, crack each claw on one side. Season lobster meat with pepper and salt and then on a roasting pan place lobster halves. 

After this, add crumbled crackers with mixture and then stuff lobsters with mixture. Stuff lobsters tightly to avoid coming-off. Next, brush lobsters with butter or olive oil and bake them till the stuffing turns crispy golden in color.
