My experience with elk...

Recently went to a higher end restaurant in my area... this place has been in the area for years and every occasion I've been there, it's been moderately busy (at minimum). Food always a hit. (This is in Florida, and the owner is DEFINITELY not Joe Nagy).

Well, I noticed their special list. I saw an elk steak (I don't exactly remember what the cut was... I believe tenderloin.) Well, I had to try it...

So, how was it? I got it medium rare (which is HIGHLY recommended). Honestly, A: it was edible. B: It tasted great overall. Yeah, it did have have a little of a "bite and a chew," but it was nowhere near to the point of being anywhere close to inedible. Honestly, if I had to compare the texture to a beef steak... maybe around what you'd expect with sirloin...?

How a piece of Elk got THAT chewy is crazy.... Probably frozen for 3 years

There are four seasons... Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall. However, a certain guy who owned a "fine-dining bistro" thinks there are actually FIVE seasons (and that micro carrots go to a place also called "five seasons")...

What do y'all think he believes the "fifth season" is?

I’ve had Oysters Rockefeller from various different restaurants… These have to be the most bland and un-appetizing looking ones I’ve seen…
