Joe Beef Lobster Spaghetti Recipe: Adapted for Easy Cooking | Eater
"A charming Lyonnais bistro–meets–Quebec-tavern known for awards and praise from famous chefs, this tightly booked hotspot remains a destination despite having faced #MeToo-era controversy reported in 2019. Its signature and famously ordered dish is a rich lobster spaghetti — a mound of perfectly cooked pasta tangled with chunks of sweet, briny lobster and salty bacon and topped with a whole lobster tail — often described as a lobster Thermidor–meets–carbonara mashup that diners rave about and attempt to recreate at home. The restaurant’s cookbook lays out the indulgent technique behind the dish, including making a shell‑infused cream sauce from the lobster thorax and tomalley, which has prompted ethical qualms about boiling live lobsters; nonetheless, the combination of decadent sauce, tender lobster and smoky bacon defines the place’s hearty, celebratory vibe." - Ivy Manning
