Yup, haven't been, called to make a reservation and they wanted my credit card for a no show - $75.

I hear it's good.  Whatever.  Probably will try it soon enough.  I'm overwhelmed with new places to try.
there would have to be a naked girl give me a lap dance for me to pay that much
They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

I could possibly pay $99 for a meal, but there better be some Wagyu Beef and other top shelf food

AND top shelf drinks would need to be included

I'll give the extra $25 for a tip

I've never tried Wagyu.  Don't really think it could be that much better than a prime steak from Iowa

I concur, really, but I've had a few steaks and they are really really good, no doubt.  They are like prime cuts but less fatty somehow in my experience.

Are they worth the money to me?  Nope, maybe special occasion worthy, maybe.  I prefer having "more elegant" fare dining out though.  I can do a pretty good steak here.

There is a local steak place called "STK" that we've talked about visiting but have never dined there.  They had a deal on buy a $100 gift card and get a $50 bonus gift card so I did it.  Haven't been yet, the $50 is limited to 3 months after 1/1/21.

I just checked their menu, it ain't cheap at all.  Huh.  Probably be a one time deal for us.

obviously, Cincy is living right

https://neurosciencenews.com/cheese-wine-cognition-17408/


Here are four of the most significant findings from the study:

1- Cheese, by far, was shown to be the most protective food against age-related cognitive problems, even late into life;
2 - The daily consumption of alchohol, particularly red wine, was related to improvements in cognitive function;
3 - Weekly consumption of lamb, but not other red meats, was shown to improve long-term cognitive prowess; and
4 - Excessive consumption of salt is bad, but only individuals already at risk for Alzheimer’s Disease may need to watch their intake to avoid cognitive problems over time.

Well shoot I got the cheese and wine part covered.  I guess I need more lamb.  And I don't use much salt at all whilst cooking, and rarely add salt to anything afterward.

Well not entirely true.  The brisket rub uses quite a bit of salt, and cracked black pepper.

Apparently a chain. Judging by their web site it'll probably be good, but overpriced for the "atmosphere"...

the latinos in the area eat a lot of goat, but I'm not in the circle

I don't use much salt, plenty of pepper and spice instead
