Lobster & Co at Woody Point

Overview

What's better than one indulgent pop-up serving lobster, truffles and champagne in southeast Queensland? Two, obviously. After hitting up the Gold Coast, Lobster & Co is heading north for a stop at the Moreton Bay Food and Wine Festival from Friday, August 19–Sunday, August 21.

Clearly, there's a specific kind of thinking behind this food event: sometimes, your tastebuds just crave something special. They hanker for the kind of dish you're not going to eat every day, aka a treat yo'self type of culinary experience.

If that sounds like your idea of an indulgent meal, Lobster & Co is doing what it does best at Apex Park in Woody Point, with the pop-up van serving lobster rolls with truffle fries and flutes of Pommery champagne.

You'll pay $50 for the food combo, which features a whole confit lobster tail served warm on a caramelised brioche bun with buttermilk fennel slaw, plus a side of parmesan truffle fries. A chilled glass of the champers will cost you $20 extra.

Also on offer: a second roll, a Thai fusion number, which includes cabbage, green papaya and sriracha mayo — and lobster, obviously — on a brioche bun.
