Show Description
[ Courtesy: Ryan Priest - ] Shep bemoans the rising cost of lobster. One restaurant has even written "ask for estimate" on menu. He predicts a day when lobsters will only be found in aquariums and museums. He tells a restaurant horror story in which his date orders several expensive cocktails. He then discovers a caterpillar in his salad.
