Grilled Lobster: Mediterranean Fine Dining with a Private Chef

Grilled lobster is one of those dishes that never fails to impress. It’s bold, dramatic, and rich with flavour — especially when flame-grilled and basted in garlic, olive oil, and herbs.

For this intimate dinner, we served grilled lobster as the main event of a private chef tasting menu, plated tableside and paired with summer vegetables and saffron aioli.

🔥 The Technique: Live-Fire Grilling

We prep each lobster fresh, split and cleaned, then grill it over flame until the meat is smoky and just opaque. The basting butter includes:

• Crushed garlic

• Spanish paprika (Pimientón de la Vera)

• Parsley

• Olive oil

• A touch of lemon zest

The result is tender, aromatic, and layered with Mediterranean flavour.

This dish is designed for impact — not just taste. We often serve it during luxury private chef events, either as a main or part of a seafood-led tasting menu.
