Lobster, the king of shellfish is No.2 in "BBC's top 50 foods to eat before you die". Go figure. The lobster you see is from a Chinese restaurant in Suzhou. Live sushi, yes they first devour the slippery tail treat that is still fresh till the last minute, while the lobster is still alive. The eyeballs constantly roll while the antenna is clipped to prevent it from moving. After the tail treat, they steam the lobster and bring it back, so that they can eat the rest of it. This graphic act is a delicacy in China among other things.
