Recently, my other half is kind of a quest for all grass-fed beef only when it comes to steak. To satisfy our appetite, I found this place on Open Rice.For those of you that prefers to drive, I would strongly discourage it as there is no parking facility nearby. In 75% humidity and 32C, we walked for almost 12 to 15 mins from the Central MTR (all uphill).

For those of you that prefers to drive, I would strongly discourage it as there is no parking facility nearby. In 75% humidity and 32C, we walked for almost 12 to 15 mins from the Central MTR (all uphill). Needless to say, we were drenched in sweat by the time we arrived.
We met with some friends there and forgot to take many photos of all the dishes due to everyone was more in the mood of catching up.
The bread was definitely not great. Dry and crumbly.
For appetisers, we had a cerviche (which was alright but nothing to WOW about), the Calamare Salad was really good and refreshing, and the bone marrow on garlic bread. I thought the garlic bread was overpowering the overall taste but the smell... was really good. I was told by the waiter that it will be even better in Winter time. Looking forward to that one!
I saw some really good reviews by others and our steaks were cooked to perfection.
Bone-in Rib-eye (32 or 34oz) was flavorful. Before it was set on the table, the nearby air filled with smell of a juicy steak. It was cooked to medium (but slightly rare). The meat was tender and the fat content was just right. Makes my mouth water just thinking about it. The 6 or 8 different sauces all gave it a different kick or taste.
We also shared another steak - skirt. It was everything the waiter said it would be. Flavorful, juicy, but with some nice texture when you chew. We ordered it medium-rare and it was perfect.
The pasta was okay. Nothing spectaculer and who can remember the pasta when you have all these meat to go around?What else can make the dinner more perfect than a bottle of Malbec from Argentina? We ordered the Trapiche Single Vineyard. It had dark berry and strong aroma. Not scratchy on the tongue at all and very fruity. It had a great length but lacked layers.
Hope you all foodies enjoy the food here as I did.
题外话/补充资料：
Not sure why the photos are all side-ways as they all looked okay in my album. I can totally see why some people will get upset at the service. It is busy but the waiters were much more polite and nice than the waitresses in general. We asked for drinks and the waitress we had pretty much made you think if you had asked the wrong question. No emotions and just showed a sign of "indifferent". For steak houses, I think a little bit more smile and being more caring would make the entire meal that much more enjoyable.
