James Cochran creates special dish for Burger & Lobster group


Fusing the best of land and sea, Burger & Lobster has teamed up with one of the capital's most respected chefs, James Cochran (alumni of Michelin-starred Ledbury and owner of Islington's Restaurant 1251), to serve up a one-of-a-kind lobster roll launching on 25 July for a limited time only.

Diners will enjoy fresh chunks of lobster meat and juicy-as-you-like slow-cooked beef shin loaded into a pillowy-soft brioche roll and garnished up to the nines – this is surf 'n' turf at its best.

His creative flair and culinary excellence, combined with Burger & Lobster's obsession with serving the highest quality Atlantic lobsters and prime Nebraskan beef, makes James' take on Burger & Lobster's iconic lobster roll one that honours the extraordinary union between these two celebrated ingredients.

Guest will experience the finest wild-caught Lobster, sustainably sourced off the coasts of Nova Scotia, Canada, paired perfectly with a tender 24-hour slow-cooked Nebraskan beef shin piled high into B&L's signature toasted brioche roll.

Joined by crisp iceberg lettuce, pickles and a rich lobster cheese sauce, the glorified creation is then crowned with James' signature scotch bonnet jam, crispy shallots and chopped parsley, served alongside crisp golden fries.

James (pictured) commented, “Burger & Lobster are already a match made in heaven – have you seen a more iconic duo? But it’s an honour to have the chance to dress them up, James Cochran-style.

'Bringing my Caribbean flavour to proceedings, enjoy BBQ beef spiked with my infamous sweet and spicy scotch bonnet jam, made even more luxury with truffle cheese sauce – because – more is definitely better…!”

The limited-edition Beef Shin Lobster Roll served with fries (£25) will be available exclusively at all nine Burger & Lobster restaurants from Monday 25 July – 3t August for lunch and dinner.
