Steak

[Sundae]

There was a question on QI the other night (well, I was watching on Dave, so the programme may have been years old - I tend to date it by Stephen Fry's fluctuating weight) where a Yeoman of the Guard was shown.

The contestants were asked what his title was.
Poor old Alan Davies did say Beefeater.
And was of course immediately docked points; officially the Beefeaters are only the Yeomen Warders. How can you tell? From what I remember the only difference is a sash.
But QI trades on pedantry.

When you come to the UK I can take you on a Haunted Walk of the Tower of London. I'm properly read up on it and have a guidebook and all. Well, except it's bloody expensive to get in nowadays, and I'm not just talking about the Bloody Tower...

PS - yes Shawnee. Beef porn it is. Bad girl.
I'm having chicken tonight in an otherwise meat-free week.
If it wasn't planned I'd be eating soft, succulent, squishy, bleeding steak.
Bought a reduced cut on Tuesday. Just one sirloin. In freezer. Not the best treatment for good steak (and Morrisons do look after their meat) but convenient for me.

When I'm in the mood I'm gonna hit that steak like a barbarian.
But I will not be pressured into it by porn!

And when you come to the U.S. I'll take you to South Philadelphia for steak sandwiches from Geno's Steaks and Pat's King of Steaks, two rivals situated a stones throw away from each other and maintaining a feud that makes the Motangues and the Capulets look like kissing cousins.

The Philadelphia Cheesesteak is to Philadelphia what Fish and Chips is to London. It is our street food. A piece of our history and culture wrapped in greasy paper and ready for a quick bite.

For the record, Geno's and Pat's use different cuts of meat sliced differently. They both, however, serve up Cheez Whiz as a topping, something you must try. You should try them both, but do not declare a favorite until you are safely back across the Atlantic.
