History of
Lobster Alive
The owner of Lobster Alive Art Taylor, has a small
single engine Cherokee aeroplane which he flies to our
holding tank in Bequia Island; and delivers them dry;
just in time to our big distribution tank at the Restaurant.
In season the tank often has 2000 to 3000 pounds of Live
Lobster in it - quite a sight to see!
The restaurant initially began as a wholesale distributor
for the island's hotels and restaurants. Cooked
takeaway service was added; along with a friendly free
beer while you wait.
Shortly after that the health inspector demanded we go the
whole way or "wholesale only". This was around 1998.
Long time friend and fellow musician with the local VSOP
Jazz band "Stu Jenkins" became the resident
artist (designer) and we named the up coming restaurant "LOBSTER
ALIVE and all that Jazz".
We felt our way; with many of the usual restaurant mistakes.
But it seems now, we have scored quite well with
international critics, restaurant guide books; and our many
repeat customers.
