Flavor Flav has already gone above and beyond to save the seafood restaurant chain Red Lobster from bankruptcy — including ordering the entire menu more than once, meeting with Red Lobster executives, and even appearing in a Crabfest-themed Red Lobster commercial. Now, the chain is repaying him with his own personal menu item: Flavor Flav’s Faves.
Flavor Flav’s new Red Lobster menu item consists of a Maine lobster tail paired with ½ lb. snow crab legs, served with garlic shrimp scampi, bacon mac and cheese and choice of one side. The whole meal is priced at $42.99. It’s currently being offered “off-menu” only, which patrons can order by asking their server for “Flavor Flav’s Faves” meal.
“As a long-time Red Lobster fan, I’m fired up to bring a little bit of my own flavor to fans with a meal featuring my seafood favorites,” said Flav in a statement. “You gotta get to Red Lobster and give it a try because this signature meal is hype, boy!” Back in May, the Public Enemy rapper declared Red Lobster’s imminent bankruptcy as an emergency and vowed to “save the cheddar bay biscuits” by any means necessary.
Flav is certainly in his philanthropic era, as he also recently sponsored the US women’s water polo team and will serve as their official “hype man” for the upcoming 2026 Olympics in Paris. In an interview yesterday with CBS Good Morning discussing the partnership, Flav once again shouted out Red Lobster, telling host Gayle King, “I’ve always loved Red Lobster, since 1987-88 I’ve been taking my family to Red Lobster… We gotta save the biscuits!”
