We have so many good restaurants in Vegas that I havent been in an Applebees in like, I guess a year ago? And that was after a hockey game with Fuzebox.

I guess in the past 10 years I've been to Applebees maybe 4 times. It's hard to go there when my favorite Thai restaurant is right across the street from it, and Outback is right next to that.

12$/kg. is not that low, especially knowing how cheap is food in US, of course its probably cow meet, not sure about the states but over here cheap "beef" is actually cow. Expensive beef is actual beef form male specimen.

No offense dude, but that's not a "personal" steak. That's meant to feed a family. I agree in a way though, I love large cuts of meat too (who doesn't) but in reality, the restaurant portions are even larger than what our bodies require.

Over Christmas break I ended up at dinner at Longhorn with some family and ordered the filet mignon. It was the worst fucking filet I ever had. You should be able to cut it with a butter knife and I had to saw through my piece with a steak knife.

Wait, why isn't anyone asking who can eat 3.5lb of meat in one sitting? I'd be throwing up - that is 1.5 kilos of meat!

That's disgraceful, cut it in three pieces add some salad ( this time don't grate the tomato) or vegies. No need to gorge yourself on that much meat.

i get some decent NY strip and other cuts locally here for $3-$4 per lb usually grill myself a 1-2lb steak that costs me $4-$6 :)

That tumor probably weighed a pound and a half.

Then add another pound of weight in water and you have a one pound steak (about the right size).

1500 gram steak? Wtf is wrong with you people. Here in Holland a normal sized steak is about 150 to 200 grams. A 10th of that steak.

About the same here with re to portion sizes.

However some restaurants have a 1 kilo steak as a 'if you can eat all of this and the vegies = meal for free / half price'.

A few of my mates who are quite let's say portly have tried and failed. So let's say the steak was 1 kilo and a further 500 grams of vegies etc - they could not eat that.

rethink that.... kobe from Australia ... same exact beef just not certified by the japs... like balsamic vinegar, parmesan cheese or any other 'local product' tied to an area by government regulations

be the Australian.... not allowed to export the 'kobe' from jap land

680 grams of steak is definitely 3 serious meals. You must be trolling. At steak house where I like to eat small portion is 125g. and big portion is 250g.

Unfortunately, he's not trolling. That is how too many Americans eat, and as you can see from this thread, think it's perfectly normal.

What Applebees is currently advertising is meals under 500 calories. That is why the portion size is small. They are trying to grab the market of folks with New Years resolutions to lose weight.

Two pages talking about steak.

Did someone say Kobe?

i don't know much about fancy restaurants but the keg makes a good steak. and mrmaxwell's steak is way too thin. when i want to make steak myself i buy it from costco, AAA certified and thick as hell.

Well

If I have to saw through a steak I'm sending it back, I don't care where the fuck I am.. that is ridiculous. What temperature did you order ?

Hey don't worry man I had a big bowl of salad with it

I get that.. but it seems to me that they just are chintzy fucks with the 550 calories. That's a side dish!!

PS: Why is everyone saying the steak was thin? That bitch was thick as hell

i've had my share of both, keg really isn't that different.. they age their steaks perfectly and high end cuts so can't really go wrong there.. especially for the price. Way better than an outback anyway heh

Beautiful...
