I recently had occasion to take my sainted wife to a very nice restaurant, one we were familiar with and I had actually used for celebrating her 40th birthday with 40 or so of our closest friends. It still even retains a dress code - as these things go these days - so we got all spiffed up for a nice evening.
I grew up in a largely British/New England household, two places that are not especially renouned for their cuisine. So, fancy dining was a discovery later in life, and this place certainly fit the bill. For an appetizer, I had a rare treat - steak tartare (get the clever pun?).
But when my main course, Filet Mignon came, it was a tad undercooked. I wanted to send it back, but I had just consumed RAW beef. How could I make my case?
Before I gave myself a headache, I just ate it.
