I don't care how many times I post this one, it's a total
classic and worth it every time, plus or minus modifications:
bone-in strip steak sliced russet potato whole white button
mushrooms pasilla pepper
all grilled; the mushrooms were selected to be the same size
and skewered; the mushrooms, potato slices, and steak were
coated in da Vinci EVOO and kosher salt; the pepper was
seeded, membraned, skinned, and diced after grilling; steak
done medium-rare
paired with a 1999 Trinchero Merlot; I've had this sitting
in my rack for years, and finally uncorked it. Brilliant
vino. Just transcendent. I paid like $10.49 for it and it's
worth $40 easy.

P.S. Finishing the day with a little Cask Strenth Macallan
Scotch; proof who knows. Like I said. Living.
