Red Lobster, the widely popular American restaurant brand, teams up with Flavor Flav, a social media personality, to kick off Crabfest with an exciting new menu that takes a seafood spin on American cuisine.
Crabfest will feature a 'Crab Your Way' option so seafood fans can choose between Snow or Bairdi, which are wild-caught and presented steamed. The Bairdi, in particular, is “sustainably caught off the coast of Alaska from the icy cold waters of the Bering Sea,” so Crabfest participants can indulge with peace of mind.
And for those who like a little extra flavor to their crab meat, Red Lobster offers flavors like cajun butter or roasted garlic to drizzle onto the steamed crabs. The menu will also include exciting new dishes like Creamy Crab Carbonara, Crab & Lobster Duo, Snow Crab & Crab-Topped Steak, and a new Crab Mac & Cheese.
