    Whose head was adorned with a wreath
    Of lobsters and spice,
         pickled onions and mice,
    That uncommon Old Man of Blackheath."
    Edward Lear, English artist, writer; known for his 'literary nonsense' & limericks  (1812-1888)

Lord Byron (1788-1824)

 

    “My temples throb, my pulses boil,
    I'm sick of song, and ode, and ballad--

    And pour it on a lobster salad.”
    Thomas Hood (1799-1845)

 

“Monkfish is called the poor man's lobster. As long as people never see what it looks like whole, they love it.”

Cookery is like matrimony. Two things served together should match. Clear should go with clear, thick with thick, hard with hard, and soft with soft. I have known people to mix grated lobster with birds' nests, and mint with chicken or pork!”
Yuan Mei, Chinese gastronome (18th century ???)
