Dinner at Maestro's Steak House with Thermador

After a long flight and being amazed at the landscape on my way to the hotel, I was welcomed by the Thermador team that organized the “Now You’re (Steam) Cooking Blogger Adventure.”

I changed quickly and we were whisked off to at Mastros City Hall Steakhouse. We started with some fresh bread sticks and let me tell you, I was a happy camper when I spied the Kosher salt encrusted stick and I had to hold back from eating the entire thing.

A large black tiger shrimp was then offered with some cocktail sauce and atomic horseradish-fire alarms!



I then had a lovely chopped salad and knew I should not had eaten so much of it as my petite filet was coming.



Then in came the sizzling 450F plates with the filet mignon on them and I was eager to slice in. To accompany the steak, we were offered creamed spinach, sauteed mushrooms (amazing) and sauteed sugar snap peas.

The topper and highlight to the evening for me was the creme brulee. They must have folded in some ricotta or something similar because this was the fluffiest creme brulee I have ever experienced and the crust, oh, the candied-like crust was heavenly.


I ate too much and smiled as I drifted asleep.

Mmm! I love Mastro's! Best steaks I've ever had, although I'm sorry I missed out on that creme brulee- it looks terrific. http://www.InspiredCuisine.com
