๐ A Little History โ The Romance of Surf & Turf
The idea of surf & turf โ combining seafood and red meat โ became a symbol of indulgence in 1960s America, often found in upscale restaurants to showcase abundance and balance.
On the other hand, Fettuccine Alfredo was born in Rome in the early 1900s by chef Alfredo di Lelio. Originally a simple pasta with butter and Parmesan, it evolved (especially in North America) into the creamy garlic sauce we now adore.
This recipe fuses both traditions: Italian comfort meets steakhouse elegance. ๐ฎ๐น๐ฝ๐ฅ
