Sometimes we grow older and then one day we suddenly ask a dumb ass question ......
Today I'd like to ask "So what exactly is "Surf n Turf?"
I've spent far too many years seeing it on a menu, but not bothering to check out what exactly it is.
To me, it sounds like I'm gonna get a plateful of Dolphin and Horse Meat. |

Went to a restaurant in the states and had lush surf and turf
The place was called the road kill cafe !!! Chef was wearing a apron saying you kill it we'll grill it ! |

The usual surf n turf I know, is scampi & steak however the more die-hard traditionalists in the foodie world prefer the scallops & black pudding variation as do i |

I've got to nearly 50 without not knowing certain things so I certainly don't know what's wrong not knowing this.
Its fish and meat togdther, depending on where you eat it is scampi and steak, lobster and steak or prawns, scallops and something. I've never actually ordered it

"how have you got to 48 and not know this?? lol"
I know, I know.....
but when the company is paying I have to choose between rump, sirloin or mixed grill; and when I'm paying, I have to choose between plate of chips or beer n burger.
It's just that I've recently been a bit more adventurous with the menu. I now enjoy salmon, green Thai curry and even a glass of pinot what-cha-ma-call.it.
Surf n Turf always passed by me. And my horror thoughts of beer battered cod, onion gravy, roast yorkshire puds, jacket potatoes with lashings of love, do nothing for me. Even if it IS Icelands very most wonderfully best prawns. |

Pointless, laughable, but hey! |

Well at least you've asked promptly this time rather than waiting a lifetime to find out  |

So surf n turf means lying across a piano whilst being force fed liqueur chocolates?
.

Perhaps I could become to enjoy surf n turf. |

"There are whole chains just doing surf and turf now.
It's rare to find excellent surf and turf but when you do it's good. Lobster and steak is the best combination as both are meaty.
"
It's the bit when chains become involved that worries me? Handcuffs too?  |
