    Clogging my arteries on Friday. Excited to quite excited

    http://www.nycprimerib.com/





    That should be fun.
    Steak looks pretty damn good, but I bet the star will be the wine. If you're gonna eat a hundred dollar steak, wine needs to be, what? at least 300/bottle, no?


    So yeah, and this is no ordinary affair.  Have the CEO of a company I work closely with, along with his exec team flying out from Austin and taking me out Friday.

    Hotel at The Beekman, with a reservation at the bar before dinner. Then this place, then who knows.

    But yeah, I would imagine the wine order is going to be pretty phenomenal.

    Not your nickel?  By all means enjoy.  Can I pick the wine for you?

    That aged Bone in would be what I'm having, thank you.  The prime rib should by all tense and purposes not be a $75 cut and I can get a really good one for a third of that at a bunch of places.  Aging a steak is an art though and man do I always go for that!

    If the Bearnaise is good then that will be one hell of a meal.

    Both the 2011 Bourdeaux will be excellent.  If you really want to get crazy 2001 was an amazing wine year.

    Enjoy and please report back.  Pics of the wine too.

    It's been way too long since I've been to a quality steakhouse. Fucking global pandemic.

    I hadn’t been to one since the beginning of the pandemic and went Del Friscos a couple weeks ago, then went to Ashton after to smoke cigars and drink whiskey. Was a good evening.

    Now this…I think I need to take up F Me’s training regimen

    Pics to come for sure. I was thinking bone in rib-eye, can’t remember the last steakhouse I went to and didn’t get that but was wondering if prime rib is their thing if I have to do it. I’ll likely go ribeye

    One of my best friends had a dinner the other day and they did 2018 Opus One, so we gotta beat that lol. Will report back

    That is awesome.  You are gonna have a blast.  Also been since pandemic for big boy steakhouse for me.

    Running at 400 AM builds character

    (Also, I've gained about ten pounds in 45 days of being on the shelf due to injury.  If you're going to eat like a runner, you need to run!)

    Have a blast.

    Made a nice board for date night.  :)


    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......
  • Just you and your Queen?
    First, that looks awesome 👍
    Second, you may not poop for a few days if you eat all that cheese.
    Just sayin'.  :lol:.

    Yeah just me and the wife.  We had the kids watch a Disney movie in the basement.  

    I went with manchengo, Spanish tapa cheese, and Vermont cheddar.  There were some leftovers.

    Do tell.  The vibe in that place is amazing.

    We ordered for the table. Shitty pic but you get it. Prime rib, bone in rib-eye and bone in strip. Also got the burger, oysters and other stuff. Frank family wine. The guy that took me has a standing Friday reservation so I’ll be taking advantage of that.

    Yum. That looks amazing. I haven’t had a good steak in a while. Is that mac and cheese?

    Had this as an app last night. Mushroom carpaccio - portobello, Parmesan, balsamic, goat cheese cream, pickled onion. Damn tasty but I was more impressed with the appearance.


  • That looks great.  I'd demo that

    Reading a book with my son, we saw reference to Figgy pudding and looked up pics of since I couldn't describe what it was.

    When we looked at the picture he said "it looks like poop with a flower on it."
    He's not wrong.

    Malasada's from Leonard's Bakery in Honolulu. Delicious treat.

    Béarnaise can make or break a steak too.

    How was that?

    Oh yeah.
    Have fun out there!

    We need a Leonard’s vs. Provincetown Portuguese Bakery malasada showdown. 

    Someone make it happen. I’ve already volunteered to be a judge. 
    I SAW PEARL JAM
  • I'd be happy to taste test as many of those as you want to throw at me.

    Dude...  I would love it if you barked like a seal and I could throw these at you.  Just sayin'...
