Basically, what you are telling me is that no one should order a dish with lobster meat when the price of a lobster in the market is at the current low level. It is better to order a lobster.
As for your quip about learning the restaurant business...I don't feel that from a consumer standpoint that the pricing represents a good value. That is my opinion and I am entitled to it. If you want to go pay $22 for lobster mac and cheese or $30 for a tiny lobster tail/steak...hey, go for it! No one is stopping you.

You are certainly entitled to your opinion as I am mine as for my "quip" I feel I am a little more qualified than you when it comes to food cost and pricing! I am sure that there are things that you are far more qualified then me in as well. T-Bones is a local chain so they have the luxury operating as a entity where the bottom line is provided by different locations, including locations that are not as seasonal as the Lakes region.
