Lobster Thermidor Recipe with FairPrice Finest
Lobster Thermidor is one of the very first things I cooked for my wife when we first got married and were living in Australia. It used to be so difficult to get all these gourmet ingredients but nowadays you can easily pick up Fresh Lobsters, Comté cheese and a good bottle of wine from FairPrice Finest.
We are quite impressed by the wide assortment of premium products at FairPrice Finest. They have a pretty wide selection of cheeses, including artisan cheeses you think can only be found at specialty stores. Their fresh seafood section carries produce like fresh salmon, scallops, mussels, mud crabs and of course Boston Lobsters. Their Bukit Timah Plaza branch is even touted as the supermarket with the largest wine selection of over 500 labels in Singapore.
There is currently an Always The Finest Social contest on @finestfoodsg. Check out details here -

Lobster Thermidor in Saffron Sauce - PoorMansGourmet
If you're a fan of lobster meat, you're going to love this Lobster Thermidor recipe. The very definition is Lobster meat, cooked in a cream sauce, returned to it's shell, sprinkled with cheese and baked to perfection. Well, in not so many words, my recipe is very similar, only better. My Saffron sauce is what I use in this recipe and it's to die for. It's a cream sauce with the cheese already cooked into it, much like an Alfredo, with the addition of Bread Crumbs over the top for a light crisp.
