Medium Rare Steak

Dec 18th 2008Around the Metro & Food and Dining & Food Friday & For Information & Philippines & Photos & Urban Living & Web Tools & Wordless Wednesday

I wrote my Food Friday entry today because we will be a bit busy tomorrow with school-related activities.

I had a thick slice of medium rare steak last Wednesday night during the annual Christmas party held at the manse of the owner of the intervention center where I work (part-time). We had this kind of food last year, same menu, same plate, please click here.

I chose the medium rare variety between the two types they were offering, had it smothered with a rich mushroom gravy sauce. The thick slice took over half the space of the plate! And to think that this was a big plate 😀

On my plate are buttered whole corn kernels, 2-3 T of garlic rice (can’t resist) and a little pasta carbonara.

I wanted to just put the steak on one plate and the others on a different plate but I didn’t. It would be difficult to walk back from the buffet table to our table holding two plates. Not to mention I would probably look like too hungry (which incidentally I was, lol!).

I wasn’t able to get good photos of my dinner plate because those sitting on with me on our table were giving me weird looks like I have gone insane taking photos of my food! 😀

If I have to eat dinners like this until the holidays are over, I might have to get me some Anoretix 😀

    i get that weird looks all the time, too!:D

    i also prefer medium rare myself, and even rare sometimes…steak tastes so much better when cooked medium rare.

    I like my steak medium well. I can’t stand the sight of blood still oozing from the meat. I have some hurried food shots too when I see people staring. Ha ha!

    Sometimes I just don’t mind them na lang but during this time I got almost everyone (at least 7 of them) on our table looking at me! 😀

    Was thinking kasi ayaw ko magtabi-tabi yung food eh sa laki ng steak, kulang yung space ko 😀

    I did go back to the buffet table, for the dessert na lang 😀

    Oo, masarap nga 😀

    Thanks, Jay 🙂
