Crazy Johnnie's is not the place where I would expect to have a quality steak dinner. It's a sports bar-type place in the middle of Fat City, and the low prices tend to make one question how a good steak can be gotten for such a low price. I don't know how they did it, but Crazy Johnnie's made one of the best steaks I've had in my life tonight.
Firstly, I can't believe it's been nearly a month since I've had a decent meal out. Tonight was definitely long overdue. Our meal began with an appetizer of "dippin' bread," French bread served with a dipping sauce of the juices leftover after the steaks are cooked. It was divine. The sauce wasn't greasy at all; it just tasted like a liquid steak.
For an entree I had, of course, the Filet Mignon. It was cooked to a PERFECT medium, topped with garlic, and served with a side of "crazy potatoes." Once again, I have never had a steak this good in my life, though I must admit I'm not extremely experienced. I wish I could have had a cereal bowl full of the crazy potatoes- roughly mashed garlicky potatoes that were thick and went just perfectly with the steak.
I'm not usually a big eater; at most restaurants I can barely finish half of a meal and I always end up with leftovers. Tonight I was two bites away from clearing my plate. Enough said.
