Lawry’s Birthday
We went to Lawry’s The Prime Rib for my birthday and had … prime rib. Here they have cuts ranging from Tokyo to Lawry’s. We had the Tokyo cut (they vary only in size apparently), which is the smallest possible portion and it was HUGE! It was absolutely incredible … so unbelievably tender, but even the small bit was well impossible to finish. The “chef” cut’s and serves it all at your table. Unfortunately they have an absolute fail on things other than prime rib. For 2000 extra you can add lobster (fried or steamed), but the steamed was pedestrian and the fried … well, whoever thought that up should be shot – it tasted to me like peculiarly bad plastic. We somehow got the only waitress with poor English and the Yorkshire pudding was dismal. They also seemed to be pushing an English – British – champagne. Just don’t! The birthday fetish at the end was a song and a pathetic piece of cake. To end up, yes, you should go to Lawry’s, but have the prime rib and don’t condemn yourself to any other offerings or else you’ll be angry at the quite extreme expense.
