What is Surf and Turf?
“Surf and turf” is a restaurant term referring to an entree which includes a portion of meat and a portion of seafood. Some people sneer at the concept, arguing that a surf and turf meal is simply a showy extravagance, since it usually incorporates expensive ingredients and can be the most expensive thing on the menu. Steak houses and mid-range restaurants, especially along the American coastline, frequently offer this main course, usually indicating that it is a surf and turf plate on the menu.
