Food Porn Friday | Fried Lobster, Cheese & Caramel | Nix’s Mate

This exists…nixsmate_lobster

Whoever thought to mix lobster, cheese and caramel all in one dish is nothing short of a legend in my mind. And then to somehow make it taste good?! Genius. At Nix’s Mate they serve lightly fried lobster with a caramel sauce and warm vermont cheddar sauce (!!!) and green onions and chiles. What is that? I don’t even know. What I do know is when you see it you’ll inevitably have the desire to fill a kiddie pool with the caramel cheese sauce and and jump in.

Happy Friday!

    Definitely my favorite dish there!

  3. Cheese with caramel? Oh wow! I”ll be all over that. One of my friends from Argentina swears by cheddar cheese with dulce de leche :)

    I need to try this dish again. I remember thinking it was too sweet for me, but after reading everyone rave about it, maybe I just didn’t get all of the ingredients in one bite. So great to see you guys there!

  5. Wow. I never would have thought to combine cheese and caramel, but now that I know such a combination exists (+ fried lobster!!), I *must* try it. Thanks!

  6. After reading this blog post last Saturday, I booked a reservation at Nix’s Mate for that evening. The lobster appetizer with caramel and cheddar sauce was incredible. The entrees were not as impressive but I would definitely return for the lobster appetizer if I got the chance. Thanks for the tip!
