Craftsteak...wow






This is our 3rd time going to Craftsteak, and it was the most delicious and most expensive trip yet there! We did the Wagyu beef tasting menu, and it really is the way to do it there. It is an insane amount of food, but worth every penny (and it was a lot of them!). We also did the wine pairing (not sure I'd recommend it, might have been cheaper to just do 3 wines by the glass). The first course came with caesar salad, grilled prawns, kobe beef tartare, frisee salad with lardons, and the best ever porter house rolls. This in itself would've been a meal! Next came the main course with Wagyu rib eye and filet (holy cow...no pun intended!), wild mushroom risotto, roasted asparagus, and roasted mushrooms. The risotto and beef were other wordly they were so good. The risotto gave the beef a run for its money as far as how delicious it was. We were so full for dessert, but still forced it down anyways. It had a monkeybread that Ryan loved (not a fan of nuts myself but it looked good). I was in heaven with the blod orange sorbet. There were other desserts, but honestly I was so full I don't even remember eating them! It is quite an experience to go there, and makes me have a lot of respect for Top Chef!
