Once You Crack Into Its All-You-Can-Eat Lobster, This Orlando Buffet On International Drive Ruins Every Other Seafood Night

I can’t eat a regular seafood platter without doing math anymore. One lobster on a plate starts to feel a little stingy. Florida has a buffet where whole lobster comes off the line one at a time, as often as you want to walk back. Snow crab legs, oysters, and prime rib sit nearby, just in case you need a breather.
