Steak & Cheese

I had heard Rob Lewis & PC talking about Wagyu steak's but had never done anything about it, Ben also had eaten one right in front of me...the swine! i had already ordered fish & chips and not seen it on the menu.
Well all this changed yesterday when i had one of these lovely steaks, with a knob of garlic butter on top and fries that were even better than Burger King's "king fries"....i am not the biggest fan of chips but these were 10 out of 10. I could not speak during this plate of unembroiled excellence nor for the few minutes afterwards.

I was out with Lia watching her friends band "Three Quarters Hazel" they were really good, but unfortunately they were out-done by the meal i had eaten just before they took the stage....and i hate to say it but they were also out-done by the desert i was about to have.

"Max Brenner Chocolate Bar" no this isn't a bar of chocolate, its an actual Bar/Cafe devoted to chocolate. Two pieces of this chocolate (20x20cm) cost $9.50, there are vat's of melted chocolate in the corner with pump's coming out of them...it is literally like Charlie & the Chocolate Factory. As soon as i saw cheesecake on the menu, then menu was closed.

When the first forkful hit my mouth, i thought id died and gone to umpa lumpa heaven. The picture below does not do it justice (think i was shaking from sheer pleasure): Served with HOT chocolate sauce and strawberry's this thing was Devinne! I have quite a sweet tooth and i had would not be able to eat a whole one of these in one sitting, it was just too decedent.

Apparently the specialized chocolate cafe/bar is not a new thing here. But it was new to me & i will definitely be visiting again.
