Catching Up Over Steak

Mansmell and I had dinner at Pacific Dining Car on Thursday. Yummers.

PDC is deliciously dark and old-school. It's the perfect restaurant for a man's man.

We started with some lobster cakes. No filler here. The real deal. Fantastic with the accompanying saffron aioli.

I had a very good Caesar salad.

The Filet Oscar was my entree -- filet mignon with Dungeness crab, fresh asparagus and blanketed with Bearnaise sauce. It was like an amalgamated surf and turf. Great.

Dessert was apple tart tatin -- warm apples atop a flaky buttery crust with apple ice cream. Love.

My steak was substantial enough that I brought some of it home. Mr. Monkey snarfed it up the next day.

PDC is my go-to place for traditional steak. It's the ideal place if you want food that is high quality and classic. Thanks for a great dinner, Mansmell!

  2. Mmmmm. I need to go here. I'm finding that all the classic, old-school joints are closing and being replaced by hip and trendy establishments. This makes me sad.
