mmmmmmmm meat wrapped in bacon....

Plataforma here in NYC is an awesome Brazillian Steakhouse.  They run through all the meat and then the variations wrapped in Bacon comes out.  I had to crawl out of there after 2 hours of all-you-can-eat and all-you-can-drink wine.

TGP seconds this motion.  Went to Plataforma the last time TGP was in the City and ate like a king!

How can you top having filet mignon wrapped in bacon presented, then sliced and served to you off a sword?

There is a place like that in Newark NJ called Seabras Rodizio, all kinds of meat cooked on a stick over fire, and they just keep bringing it around until you stop them.

it would be cool if two waiters served you and then fought to the death with the swords... sorta like this...

Speaking of the 'Toga - whatever happened to Sir Redford Tackleton XVI???

He's has been conspicously absent from the LLPP for quite some time.  The lack of assmosphere since his departure has been quite noticeable......

Went to this place called Masa in the south end of boston and they had a damn good steak, with a bourbon reduction sauce....that is if any one cares.  not terrible expensive either.

AJ, post steak, you didn't visit any 'man friendly' bars in the South End ala LD11 did you??

No not the tube steak that LD has taking a liking too....masa = south western fare with good products...

Hard spun is a mudder.....one of only about 5 horses that has run in an off track condition and I think the only one who won in the mud...coming off a hell of a work earlier in the week to,,,,

Have to put a plug in for Sam P...He's named after a good photgrapher friend of my fathers...they share the same birthday... #5 of the pletcher barn but the rain could give him hope!

[Rolevio]

While not sure it counts as a steakhouse, the best Rolevio has had was from a  BBQ place about 25 minutes outside of Austin, TX.  The entire menu consisted of 4 cuts of meat ordered by the quarter pound, corn  and various drinks. No plates, just wrapped in a wax paper.  It was amazing.

Supposedly pretty famous, it was featured on Dateline or similar News Magazine show shortly before I went.  I just can't think of the name.

This Memorial Day we should all remember it is not about the parties and sales.  It is to remember those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice for their friends, family and country.  Take some time this year and attend your towns observations.  Take some time out if you are with family and friends to remember these young men and women.  If you see the men and women of the VFW and their Auxilaries giving out poppies, take one and give a small donation if you can, wear it to remember.  Look up the poem "On Flanders Fields" and you will understand the poppy.

Thank you for indulging KS in reading this.

Back to your regularly scheduled LLPP discussions.
