steak | fish | bar
Steakhouses were born in New York city, in the mid 19th century, they were then men-only restaurants, specializing in flavoury chops and steaks. With decades passing by, steakhouses began offering menus that were more refined; adding items such as shrimp cocktails, creamed spinach, salads and even desserts, with the reign of the notorious cheesecake, now typical of modern steakhouses.
Over the years, a wider selection of meat was offered in steakhouses, cooking techniques became more refined; dry aging or wet aging (vacuum sealed bag), and chefs began using more polished cooking methods (to keep the meats juicy and bursting with flavors).
THE MODERN STEAKHOUSE
Modern steakhouses now offer meat-lovers a plethora of meat; grilled beef, beef tartare, poultry, pork, and sometimes, fish and seafood. The main accompaniements offered at steakhouses are potatoes (either baked, fried or mashed), seasonal vegetables (asparagus, mushrooms etc.). Beer, wine and exotic cocktails are always on the menu for a successfull steak diner.
