I’d like to speak to the manager!!!

Speaking of overcooked steaks.   

At the end of the night on Sunday night, an order comes in, 2 Australian Wagyu tomahawk steaks. 

$165 each. 

One medium. 

One medium well.

I’m called to the kitchen. 

Chef explains that there is no way to cook a bone in steak to medium well, without charring the outside, and risk of overcooking it, because the area near the bone takes longer to cook and will always be less cooked than the area away from the bone. 

Dining Tip:  If you like a medium well or well done steak never order a bone in steak.  Get the filet, butterflied or a New York strip. 

He says all of this, which I already knew. 

He tells me to let the guests know that he’ll attempt medium well, but it’s at their own risk.  If they do not like the steak and the way it’s prepared, it will not be removed from the bill. 

I share this news with the server.

She reappears 90 seconds later saying they’d like it medium instead.

The steaks are served and deliciousness was experienced by everyone.
