Ringing in the New Year with a lobster feast at Noir

POSTED: Thursday, December 20, 2012, 3:05 PM

There will be no shortage of Champagne, caviar, foie gras and other luxury edibles on menus all over town this New Year's Eve but down at Noir (1909 East Passyunk Ave.) they're doing something a little different.

Canadian chef Marco DeCotiis is rolling out a $75 lobster prix fixe that includes the usual suspects i.e. lobster bisque, surf and turf and lobster ravioli. But the real intrigue here comes with the dessert course: a vanilla lobster (!) crème brûlée. Crazy. right? Well, food types love to talk about lobster's delicate sweetness so this might just be crazy enough to work. If any of you intrepid Meal Ticket readers make it to Noir and sample the crustasaen brûlée please be sure to report back.
