Medium?

[kenbro]

First family dining out meal for quite a while.
Medium Steak Diana (Sic) for me.
I thought it under cooked, anyone agree?
£25 Inc chips but sans veg.

[Rory]

Yep. That is not what I'd call medium. Did you send it back?

 

[Finch]

Lovely. I'd call that medium rare rather than rare. That's how I eat mine. Had one for lunch actually that was a good deal pinker than that.

 

[I. Farticus]

That's the rarer end of medium rare

 

[StephenToast]

Whether it's medium or not I don't know but that's overcooked for me by a fair margin.

 

[Finch]

Tis a very subjective thing, cooking a steak. One man's medium is another man's cremated.

They've obviously forgot how to cook during lockdown

A set of jump leads and I'd have that on its feet chew
In' grass...

If Pink no blood its medium

Twenty-five pounds for steak and chips? Considering the shite masquerading as beef these days, I hope the 'chef' drove you home for that price too?

That is on the rare side of medium rare but I would send it back and get it bloody, saignant, or even bleu.

Tonight I had half a grilled lobster for £26. Chips were a fiver on top and I kid you not, there were 8 chunky chips in the dish. Nice restaurant though and we walked away with a £125 per head bill but it was a lovely birthday party for an old and dear friend, and sometimes you just have to go for it.

I'm surprised the chef bothered to cook it (or did he?) - I like mine "medium well"

 

[Stalker1962]

A friend on holiday ordered a "rare" steak.

It was not "rare" enough for his liking.

The next night he again orders the "rare" steak - again not "rare" enough for his liking.

On the third night, he emphasised that he wanted it "rare".

When it arrived it was Blue (Bleu) and a decent vet could have revived it.

Turns out the third night, it was a different chef.

A decent Vet would have that back on its feet with a bit of treatment

 

[User00025]

I like a good fillet or loin steak just walked slowly through a warm room.

 

[Woodsmoke]

I used to like my steak very rare. These days I prefer it medium rare. What really bugs me though, is a chef that takes the time to cook the steak just how the customer would like it, then shoves it onto one of those stupid cast iron 'sizzler' deals. By the time it then gets to you, it's bootleather

 

[plonker]

Like the rare side of medium rare.
As they say "wipe its arse and send it out"

 

[Davee]

My Dad's version of rare was "20 seconds each side over a candle flame, stick a fork in it, if it goes Moo give it another 5 seconds!!" He would have sent that back as overdone!

 

[Sampo]

Its very rare to find a steak thats of medium size. The picture reminds me of the time I accidently ordered 'steak tartare' in a French restaurant and asked the chef to make it well done as burgers weren't on the menu.
