Lilith, I've also eaten in many many many places, and worked in quite a few food establishments, and the rule has always seemed to be that the shell will be cracked -- to make it easier to get to the good part without showering yourself, your dining partners, or your neighbors! Maybe I'm missing something, but I'm not quite sure what you meant by "reheated lobster parts" -- do you mean they take the shells from one lobster and stuff the meat from another into said shell?

Thanks for the review.
