Food Style? Pub Food
I’m in the mood for something Western, and after gorging myself on the best Chinese and Malaysian food for the past three weeks. I’ve settled on steak, though the name of the restaurant I’ve chosen is slightly odd - I do hope they’re serving beef steaks from a cow here and not the other other red meat. It takes a while for someone to notice that I’ve sat down without a menu, but we get there in the end. Prices are pretty expensive so I hope I’m getting something good quality and hearty.

Le Modeste: Flat iron steak with sweet potato fries and fresh Cannibale sauce
The sweet potato fries are very good. They go better with the steak’s mayo than the herby sauce they’ve given me. The steak is cooked beautifully, it’s juicy and pink on the inside, and the chimichurri (which cost €2) was worth the extra expense, I don’t even want the barbeque sauce they’ve given me. The pickled onions are an excellent side, and the acidity helps to balance all the rich flavours everywhere else. I've been given a large chopping knife to slice up my steak, which I find strange, but perhaps thematic?
