Parents are in town this weekend, my girlfriend and I will be hosting them at our house for dinner and I need good ideas as to what to cook. Dad doesn't eat red meat and loves seafood, Mom hates seafood. Looking for something out of the ordinary..can be casual or fancy. Thanks!

How about some lobster tails or crab legs for dad, and veal piccata for mom? And you and your gf can have either or both! Then toss in a steamed veggie (I like asparagus with this) with some hollandaise, and a salad and some crusty bread.
That's what I'd do at least. :)
