Before we left Fentress Texas a few days ago Bill, June, Sharon and I decided we wanted to try out one of the better steak house in the area.. After a little research I got to choose Myron's Steak House in New Braunfels (www.myronsprime.com) as the place to go. Highly rated and serving only the finest prime beef that was dry aged for some three weeks then wet aged for another week or so. OMG this is Nirvana. Now keep in mind that anything prime that is sold is expensive and with all that aging the price keeps on going up. But cast aside the cost I say ... we'll eat Ramen noodles for a month. I gotta try it once.
Here's 3/4 of the group just before heading in for our feast. The thorn between two roses on this Valentines Day. The other thorn was taking the picture. Duh!
Service and attention to detail was first class, as one would expect. The food. OMG!
Something about prime aged beef that give it a 'beefier' taste sets it apart from anything else you might run across in lesser places. Sharon had a bone-in filet (a cut that I have never seen at a restaurant before) and I had a bone-in rib eye. Each plate served exactly as ordered. Bill and June had filet and a host of scrumptious appetizers that they generously shared. Myron's wine selection was one of the things they also like to brag about. With some vintages selling at over $800/bottle, you had to be very careful what you ordered or you'll be eating those darn ramen noodles far longer that you had planned. Top off the feast with a special brewed coffee and a creme' brulee dessert garnished with fresh fruits ... Happy Valentines Day to us.
So fellow food sluts ... this is how to do it right and live high on the hog ... so to speak. One big expensive night out maybe once every 6 months ... it's worth saving up for.
Still livin' the dream and enjoying each day as it comes.
Phil
