Now that's a nice plate of food! I like the asparagus bundle as opposed to wrapping individual spears.

Nice job and points for trying something new. Looks like you used warm water lobster. Try it with cold water lobster if it's available in your area. They are usually smaller but I find the meat much sweeter.
