Choosing within the Shellfish Tools collection

Cracker or pick — what are they used for exactly?

The lobster cracker breaks claws, joints and pieces of hard shell. The pick is the complementary tool to reach flesh left in fine claws and legs, where a fork cannot fit.

Why a set of 6 picks?

The set of 6 matches a full restaurant service: one pick per guest, for a seafood platter or a lobster service. It is the HoReCa standard, avoiding repeat orders.

How to care for these tools?

18/10 stainless steel picks go through the dishwasher without difficulty. The aluminium lobster cracker is best washed by hand to preserve the finish and avoid the oxidation marks typical of aluminium on long cycles.
