      @@Jamesnu Yes u have a great style and I agree the ribeye is my favorite cut, it's delicious and tender and good portion size. I guess they did away with 15% gratuity wow, it's not enough that food prices have sky rocketed but they want us to pay for the raise of the servers wages. In Europe and most countries it is unheard of. The restaurant owner pays a fair wage so it doesn't come out of the customers pocket.

    My spirits always lift when I see James has dropped a review for us. The salad looked so enticing. I always appreciate when a restaurant chills the bowl and fork, along with ice cold Iettuce. Congrats on 30,000 subscribers! I sense this is a tipping point.

    James, that place looked perfect to me. Such a classic NYC Steakhouse vibe. The food looked amazing as well. I couldn't help but notice the large format bottles of Opus sitting atop the wine glass cabinet. Man I sure miss my drinking days. I got sober 30 plus years ago simply because I drank way too much wine. I had a 6000 bottle cellar at home and needless to say, I tried to put a dent in it every night. LOL Nothing beats a glass or 6 of a well aged Cab from Napa, especially with a beautiful steak like that bone in rib eye. Perfect review, as usual. Great timing too, as I'm about to throw an 8 pound Rib Eye Roast in the oven for our dinner tonight. Big congrats on hitting 30K my friend. Very well deserved. As always, Cheers sir.

    You brought back some fond memories of my younger days in New York. I sometimes would meet a friend there for dinner. She lived in the apartment building opposite the restaurant. Then Lydia had her restaurant “Felidia “opposite Club A. We often shuttled between these two restaurants often. Glad to see Club A is still around but Felidia’s is now closed. I absolutely loved Club A’s red interior.

    Interesting. How did you know the Rib Eye was 20 oz? I saw the menu and the ounces aren't stated. Peter Luger also doesn't state size and that seems to becoming more common in steak house menus during this current 'shrinkflation" environment.

    • @Jamesnu
      @Jamesnu  9 місяців тому

      That's because it was the same ribeye from the regular menu, which does state how much it weighs. I know what you mean though. When I order a steak, I like to know how much meat I'm getting.

    The time and effort it takes to produce these shots (I can only imagine the editing) solo must be exhausting. How does one even enjoy the meal while acting and directing? As one gets bigger on this platform, I’m assuming eventually staffing up frees you from the mundane tasks of the shoot itself. That said, the current production quality vs the beginning is to be applauded.

    Why would the chicken parm be a 30 dollar upcharge when the ribeye was only 20 more? That chicken better pop off the plate and do a song and dance number (ala the Warner Bros. cartoons frog) for that kind of money.

    • @Jamesnu

      ​@@JamesnuAfter going back to rewatch you are absolutely correct. That was an odd way to write up that menu. Maybe they initially just had the first 4 or 5 steaks and realized it looked a little skimpy and threw on a couple of classics from their previous Italian restaurant to round it out. i'm sure these fixed price menus are hard to create to get new diners and still make at least a little money.

    Why didn’t just ask for sea salt and order a glass of wine. I live in nyc and go to restaurants like I more than likely won’t be back for some time so I order exactly what I want to have the best experience. I’d be shocked if they didn’t flaky salt.

    • @Jamesnu
      @Jamesnu  9 місяців тому +1

      Fair enough. The thing was that if I put sea salt onto the steak then it would've been over-salted. The restaurant should've put less salt on the meat when it was being cooked so the sea salt could be added later without overpowering the steak.
