The Skinny: Members of our circle are not big consumers of steak. But we make an exception for this riff on the classic French steak frites, beautifully prepared each visit.
The 10-ounce strip steak is grilled over a wood fire. As for that beef, it was tender and redolent with maitre d’ butter — that mix of butter, garlic, lemon, herbs and other goodies that bring out the flavor of the beef.
Thin-cut fries were crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, just the way we like them.
Good, if not good for you.
