Something I saw on Colameco's food show - did you know the Palm Restaurants buy something like 75% of the 6lb and up lobsters sold in the US?

I would have to see a source on that to buy it...

I heard it on Colameco's food show, Season 6, ep 4. Right from Wally Ganzi, the CEO of the Palm Group. They sell something like 25,000 lbs of lobster a week. Interestingly, the original location is the oldest continuously operating restaurant in New York City.

That is incredible for a company that has only 28 restaurants

Yeah, but they don't look as good on TV when you hand them to a race car driver. ;) :D
I dunno, if I had to pick one to win, it'd be Texas. Sixguns on stage speaks to the little boy I still am who loved to play cowboy! :D
