and these

but this is what we really came for
steak. omg. steak. medium rare steak. the steak that made me want to kill myself after interviewing the chef who made it for us.
salad was also there

I seriously need to be educated with steak.
so i was talking to this chef right, and i unknowingly (and casually!) asked something like: how do you manage the varying preferences of the customers when it comes to their steak? whether they like it raw, medium rare, or well-done.
OMG. I SAID RAW! KILL ME NOW.
