One of the benefits of winning Fun 107's $30 Grand in Your Hand contest is that you could take the vacation of your life and live larger than you've ever dreamed.  While lobster used to be so plentiful it was served to the poor, the indigent, and the incarcerated, it is certainly now a delicacy.  Just like everything else in life, the price of lobster rolls have shot up dramatically over the past year or two.  It's not unusual at all to see a lobster roll priced between $25 and $30 dollars here on the SouthCoast.  That same lobster roll might be closer to $50 of $60 dollars on the Vineyard or Nantucket.

However, a restaurant in Boston is making a play for the most expensive lobster roll in the world, and they're doing it on a day when lobsters should be celebrated.  Can you imagine buying a $10,000 lobster roll?

Pauli’s, one of Boston's best for foodies, is celebrating National Lobster Day on Wednesday, September 25, 2024 with the most lobstery proposition for a proposal ever in the history of shellfish.

For one day only, Pauli’s famous “Lobstitution,” a massive lobster roll perfect for sharing, will be topped with a certified 1-5/8 carat round-cut diamond halo engagement ring along with full closure of the restaurant to give you the privacy needed to pop the question.  Or, if you're brave, to invite all of your friends and family to watch you get on one knee.

We’ve always had a good time creating these types of promotions, and the idea of filling the restaurant with friends and family and popping the question in the most Boston way ever, seems like a fun idea,” said Paul Barker Owner of Pauli’s in Boston, MA.

The engagement offer is only available for 24-hours on National Lobster Day! For more information, contact Pauli’s in Boston, MA at pauliscatering@paulisnorthend.com and Paul himself will get back to you.

Back in 2018, the restaurant offered a Valentine's burger topped with a diamond worth $3000.
