This recipe was easy to prepare and came together quickly. DH and I were impressed by how complimentary the pairing of the grilled lobster and grilled veal were. We would have never thought of the combination. While we liked the dish, we were not overly fond of the frutiness of the sauce, which I believe is probably personal preference. Our only modifications were to use regular butter in place of clarified, and while I bought watercress, I forgot to garnish the dish with it. We used Bacardi for the rum. Thanks for an interesting meal. Made for ZWT5.

<p>I live in Hilliard, Ohio and I work for a restaurant equipment and design distributor. I hated to cook when I was young and did not really have a passion for it until I married my husband 13 years ago. He's a Mikey - will eat just about anything so he is a lot of fun to cook for. It is hard to say what my favorite cookbook is. I have the standard Betty Crocker that is about 30 years old and so beat up. But it is great for the basics. I love Taste of Home and other cooking magazines such as that. I tend to spend my time reading recipes, clipping them out and then storing them in a notebook according to category to be tried at a later date. Needless to say, the notebook is overflowing with recipes that have not been tried yet!!! <br /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg border=0 alt=Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/AMPageBanner.jpg alt= /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/participantbannerzwt5.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /><br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />src=http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj81/HokiesLady65/Recipezaar%20Album/iplaytagin.jpg></p>
