Surf and turf

Surf and turf is a main course particularly common in steakhouses which combines seafood and meat, usually American lobster tail and steak.

The term orginated along the Atlantic coast of North America. As of 2005 the earliest published use of the term (according to the Oxford English Dictionary) is in a 1967 advertisement in the Buffalo, New York Yellow Pages, placed by a restaurant called Michael's House of Steaks.

The dish is also called "reef and beef" in Australia.
