Rare please!!!
Last night after work the girls from the office went for a bite to eat together...
We decided to start off in the pub across the road with a glass of wine before heading up the road to the restaurant for our meal.
Those that know me well, will know that I don't eat a lot of red meat, my main food intake is chicken or fish and loads of vegetables.... But when i get the chance and go out for a nice meal I will order steak... Of course to me there is only one way to eat your steak and that is RARE!!! yes I am the person who likes to see some blood when cutting into my steak.
Now why is it that whenever i do order steak and ask for it rare do I get the strangest looks from the waiter... Last night one of the girls who joined us was a vegetarian... So naturally i warned her before we got there that I would be having steak and that it would be bloody, so if you are put off by that please don't sit next to me...
So why do I like it rare?? mmmm... well this must come from my Dad who would always make the best steak and it would always be rare, in fact we were the only two in the house who would eat it like that... and personally I don't enjoy chewing on a piece of leather :-)
I can't get into the habit of indulging in rich food, I've done well to loose the weight I have and I'd like to keep it off... as it is I have missed my Zumba session last night and will need to make up for it somehow this week... will have to see if I can book into the session on Thursday night..
Next outing though I think we need to find a nice Sushi bar... haven't had decent Sushi since leaving South Africa, and I would go at least once a month with my girlies... man I miss them....
