Hmmm... Filet Mignon


Went to Wall Street to meet up with my friends last night, it's been a while since we last saw each other... Our original plan was to hit theMercantile Grill on Pearl. However, we soon found out Goldman was having an drinking event there, so we ended up in St Maggie's on Wall.

To me, food is just as important as catching up with friends. Aside from our usual sarcastic remarks
towards each other(hahah, that's our way of communicating love and care), the food was fantastic
as well. I had the daily special Filet Mignon served with Lobster & Crabmeat Ravioli and White
Truffle Sauce ($26)... Yeah Yeah I know, for that price, it better be good. Otherwise I'm never
going back again. But it's always good to have a perfectly done steak(medium rare is how I like it).

On the flip side, the small portion reminds me of the days in Argentina, where I can get 10X amount
of meat for half the price. I can't help but wonder where the Argentinians get their beef from.
Seriously, they serve like it's free... I still recall once my guy co-worker asked for the half portion,
the waiter was like:"Um... Sir, you sure about that, that's really for a girl..." Hahahah, that has
been noted in the team forum, and we haven't stopped teasing him ever since...
