OWNER BETS $500 I CAN'T EAT 48" OF LOBSTER ROLLS | Joel Hansen

  • THAT THING IS HUGE!! The BIGGEST LOBSTER ROLLS IN FLORIDA are the equivalent of over 8 lobster rolls, filled with fresh Maine lobster and either buttery lobster in a Connecticut style or a New England style lobster roll (aka maine style) with mayonnaise and other delicious flavors served on a locally made roll that is 2 feet long! Today we are at The Nauti Lobstah New England Seafood in Apopka Florida (Orlando Florida area) to try and eat the biggest lobster roll I have ever seen in the USA! These giants feature over 2lbs of fresh cooked lobster meat, dressed the way you like it on a 24" locally made roll and are available for only $160. Can one man eat one of these giant rolls (best shared with multiple people in a party, celebration or very hungry situation), or possibly even two of these giant lobster sandwiches?!? This Florida seafood feast quickly turned into a bit of a seafood challenge, but you will have to see what happens when a chef doubts what Joel Hansen the professional eater can do. This is one of the best tasting restaurants I have been to in Orlando Florida, and i think they rightfully deserve the many awards they are winning for the best seafood in Orlando and the best restaurant in Orlando.
    Huge thanks to the staff at The Nauti Lobstah, check them out for delicious food: thenautilobstah.com/

It would take me as long to finish only the last lobster salad roll he ate, with far less meat per inch also . Those things were spilling over with critter meat, amazing! Looks like I’m going to Florida soon to find this place. Props to this man as well as the owner and staff.

    What can be said about the chef?! My family owned a restaurant for over 40 years. My father worked with my grandfather and I got to work with mine when I was old enough. It's not an easy business. To see the chef not only accepting to comp the rolls but to add a cash prize on top of it, and sending some more free food is really heart warming. Of course with all the views it's a good promo but you can see that the guy is just genuinely enjoying seeing people being amazed by the food he cooks. Keep it up chef!
