Steaks!

Weenie and I are once again at the downtown petting zoo so we took the opportunity to go to The Butcher Shop. We hadn't eaten there in at least 10 years.


I hasn't changed one bit. We placed our steak orders and headed to the salad bar. It was actually pretty good for a cheesy salad bar.

Of course, the gigantic moose oversaw us as we made our salads.

The chef prepares your steak out in the open. You can watch or cook your own (who would want to).

I ordered the 16 oz. strip. You can't tell from this picture but the steak was easily 2 inches thick and it was cooked perfectly! Wow! It was velvety and had a nice char on the outside. One of the better steaks I've had in quite a while. Note to self, you cannot eat 16 ounces of meat.

As if that wasn't enough, the menu boasted authentic New York cheesecake. Dense and dry. It was not authentic New York cheesecake but was delicious all the same.
