Lobster Guacamole Recipe

On a recent sunny afternoon, Food Republic took a lunch break on the patio at Todd English's sprawling new Manhattan restaurant Crossbar. There's lots to like on the menu, but one dish that stood out on the appetizer list was lobster guacamole. That's right: English is putting lobster to use — perhaps because of its increased availability — in that Mexican standard, guacamole. Do lobster and guacamole go together? Indeed they do! Make this dish yourself to find out how these two great tastes go great together. Gracias, Señor English.
