History
The recipe of Lobster Thermidor was created around 1880 by Auguste Escoffier then working in Maison Maire, a Parisian restaurant near the theatre Comédie-Française. In January 1891, the play Thermidor by Victorien Sardou opened in that theatre. The play took its name from a summer month in the French Republican Calendar, during which the Thermidorian Reaction occurred, overthrowing Robespierre and ending the Reign of Terror. Mr Paillard (Maison Maire's owner) changed the name of this recipe after the play gained in popularity.
In Pop Culture
In the 2017 film The Lego Batman Movie, lobster thermidor is prominent in several scenes and is referenced as Batman's favorite food.
