Oddly enough, no photos exist of tonight's meal.
I prepared about half of it.
Pepper Steak (steak au poivre) that I grew to love at a French restaurant (Restaurante Pierre) when we lived in Guadalajara, Mexico.
I learned to make it at home.
Tonight's meal was accompanied by a baked Russet potato topped with butter and sour cream and salt and pepper, asparagus, and a wonderful mixed salad, courtesy SWMBO.
She doesn't love steak like I do (though she does love this preparation) so it's a rare treat.
A little red wine, after aperitifs of whiskey and water and vodka and water, and (for me) an after touch of Sambucca straight up.
She topped her meal off with a bit of Death by Chocolate ice cream.
Do we dine well?
Yes, I think we do.
(Sorry for the absence of pictures.)
Sounds delish! I'm all for squeezing the 'rare treat' into the week!
ReplyDeleteDeath by chocolate. What a way to go.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds really good! I'm not much of a steak eater either, but I do like pepper steak.
ReplyDeletePictures would have made my stomach growl even more than your descriptions.
