There was too much at steak

He just loves that candle-smoked flavour!

A friend of mine likes his steak cooked well done (yeah I know, don’t ask). When we went to France, he was told that they tend to cook their steaks less than we do in the UK, so he asked for it burnt on the outside and well done inside, thinking that would come just as he liked it. It still came what I’d call medium rare. I’m sure if you ask for your steak rare, they’d just wave it over a candle for 1 second on each side and then put it on the plate.

Dumb and funny!

So, how do you like this new paleo restaurant?

It’s called steak tartare, although I do prefer mine minced instead of in one chunk.

“But I want to show them.”

He rarely complains about anything. :)

Because if you complain to them it’ll come back as charcoal.

I went to one of those Asian restaurants where they sear your meat at the table. The fumes were so harsh I had a choking fit from the smoke and lost my appetite.
