[QUOTE="tRidiot, post: 3087158, member: 9374"] I've pretty much now crossed off steak, as well as BBQ, as something else I won't eat out at a restaurant. :( I just can't make myself DO it anymore. Every time I do, I am at the very BEST simply "meh" about it, and at the worst (like last night), I feel not just disgusted, but really [B]angry [/B]at [B]myself [/B]for doing what I knew better than to do. As for the cut of meat, I have quite literally gotten ribeyes at WalMart that were easily better steaks than the one they served me last night. There was essentially NO seasoning of the meat, as far as I could tell. I'm just... really just utterly disappointed in myself. Don't get me wrong - there are a few places I've been who cook and serve REALLY good steaks, almost - ALMOST - as good as I can cook for myself at home. But those places cost more for me to eat than I would spend buying dry-aged and Prime steaks for my entire family AND neighbors on both side. Just for ONE. I just don't think I can make myself DO it anymore. Every day I become more of a hermit. lol. I think I'll have to stick to only going out for ethnic foods, really. Italian, Chinese (although here in B'ville, that's a problem), etc. [/QUOTE]
