Today I dined on some nice Memphis Steak.
I ordered a medium cooked steak, not too rare and unprepared and not too over cooked. Nevertheless, I started with a salad, to stir up my appetite. The dressing I picked, and I like Italian, which fitted my personal taste. So then I had to wait for the steak to cook as the chief did their cooking, I had no worries because I had a nice salad to eat. Before I knew it, the steak was finished and ready to feed my stomach. I stood there amazed at the meal before my eyes, the juicy steak’s aroma filled my olfactory and I could not wait to eat. But patience I had and being a human I could not devour the WHOLE thing all at once. Divide and conquer, I picked up my knife and fork and went to battle. A fought here and there with the tendons that caused a little trouble, but the whole piece of meat was nicely cut after some works of my given tools. Now, I think my meal is ready to eat. The pieces small enough for me to see and choose which I want to eat. Do I want to start near the bone? Do I want to apply some steak sauce? Should I eat fast before the steak got cold? I was hungry, so I ate right away. A piece here and there and I worked my way from the outer rims of the meat into the center. At times, I felt the thirst in my throat so I stopped my chewing and got a good drink of water to wash everything down. The process of munching down the gourmet beef and water made the whole experience enriching. I reflected on my every bit with satisfaction. In the end, I could not believe that I eat the WHOLE thing. It was such a grand piece of bovine but I worked my way through it.
:P hint : divide and conquer.
