| 10oz marinated hanger steak frites: 40 day aged angus signature reserve hanger steak, marinated + grilled med rare - medium, pomme frites, parsley, garlic, parmesan cheese, cajun spice remoulade - 2 J's comment > texture of steak was reminiscent of gristle (the way I like it), not exactly lean nor marble, but not tough - hard to describe exactly but easy to pass over; fries were lukewarm and slightly dense |
