Meh. If they were *really* good, they wouldn't have to ask.

/medium rare is the truth and the way

I disapprove. They should also be asking "Do you want another steak?"

"Welcome to L'Entrecôte. What temperature would you like your steak?"
-"Yes.. um... there are four people in our party and we'd like to be seated please."
"What temperature would you like your steak?"
-"You're not even a server!"
"ANSWER ME!"

Temperature? Weird. How does that work exactly?

I like a good sear on the outside which leads to a cool, red centre, but I've never actually measured the temperature.

To sum: rare, please.

Good use of Spiffy tag. Added to my New York file.

That's great for the steak, but it in no way helps with my drink order.

Celsius, Fahrenheit or Kelvin? I'd really sooner not have to bring a cheat sheet to dinner.

You guys know that, right?

RminusQ: I disapprove. They should also be asking "Do you want another steak?"

FTA: "Your steak comes in two stages, on a relatively small plate: you eat your portion of meat, sauce and fries and then are served seconds."

Ha, ha. Someone didn't RTFA.

Order in Kelvin and biatch at them when they assume you meant Fahrenheit.

Whatever. Head to Greenville, MS for a better meal. Does Eat Place. You can have steak and fries. If you ask what options you have it's steak and no fries. Best damn steak I ever had.

You forgot "Blue" or "Raw" - usually only used for tuna steaks.

Subby left out a key detail:

"It has no real menu to speak of. There is only salad and steak frites. Some wine to drink and a dessert after. Women in French maid outfits serve the stuff as if they were characters in an early Preston Sturges film."

Pure chewing satisfaction.

Yes, the same thing applies to both tuna and beef.
