Beat Congestion Pricing with unattended deliveries!
Congestion pricing starts in June. That means every delivery truck will pay a $24-$36 toll every time they cross below 60th street in Manhattan. New York will use the tolls to fund improvements to the MTA - which is good news for commuters, but it's going to be tough on our industry. If we beat the clock, we can beat these tolls. Before 5AM, the commercial vehicle toll is only $3. So, if we can access your kitchen to deliver your products before the sun comes up, we can save money and time together. We're already making unattended deliveries to over 100 kitchens throughout the NYC area.
Updated pricelists for the upcoming week (Friday to Thursday) are available on our website!

Reach out to your driver, sales representative, or sales@lobsterplace.com if you have any questions. And if you have RPC’s lying around, just let us know! We’ll come by and pick them up even if you don’t have an order!
Chile Pepper Flavor Pearls
Christine Le Tennier flavor pearls provide an innovative finishing touch in a variety of contexts. Each serving of just a few pearls bursts on the palate, releasing bold flavors. Try them in cocktails, on cheese plates, with oysters, or as a topping for desserts and pastries.
Ortiz Anchovies in Olive Oil
Ortiz Anchovies are carefully prepared and filleted, one by one, and are caught during the spring fishing season and freshly processed to maintain their full flavor. They are then aged in barrels with salt for a minimum period of 6 months. Once at their best point of maturity, they are hand-filleted one at a time and then packed in olive oil or salted. Anchovies from the Engraulis encrasicholus species are the most popular in the world. Thanks to this careful traditional preparation process, we get a premium anchovy with a compact flesh and rich flavor.
