Big Guy 1,400 Posted September 19, 2017 Lol you guys would pay over 25-30 for a steak? Insanity. I could serve you a sizzlers steak at a fancy place and you wouldn’t be able to tell the difference. Whatever they cost at outback is the most I’d pay. yes, and sadly I recently ate there, not impressed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bier Meister 1,512 Posted September 20, 2017 Went to outback about a month ago. Terrible... They used to be ok not sure what happened. Not really... many years ago tried to give them a chance. only thing i liked from them was their ribs. we ultimately stopped going. while in maui in 2010 our daughter was sick and we decided to do take out from them. not good. taint- if you really have an outback steak close to a morton's steak, your standards and taste buds are dramatically askew. this a very different cry from comparing a "nice restaurant" steak vs steakhouse, which is much more reasonable and my preference. i find steaks at other restaurants much more interesting (sides, sauces, rubs, seasonings) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
penultimatestraw 473 Posted September 20, 2017 Not only am I not trolling but I could also serve you a bottle of Trader Joes 3$ wine in an expensive bottle and you would commend me on the fine quality. Also Bier says I dont hit then makes my point for me. Win. And I could serve you a veggie burger that you wouldn't be able to distinguish from beef. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
penultimatestraw 473 Posted September 20, 2017 It’s better, just not what I would pay in comparison to the diminishing returns of taste and enjoyment. I would enjoy it a little more and pay a lot more.How do you gauge other people's level of taste/enjoyment relative to the investment in the steak? Does everyone secretly share your palate and financial sense? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

penultimatestraw 473 Posted September 20, 2017 I would happily eat it. Dont know, don’t care, I said “I would not pay” and “I would enjoy”. Right after you said anyone paying for such a steak is crazy and would be duped by a lower quality steak and wine. So which is it - if you can taste the difference but choose not to pay for it, why are people who do rubes who cannot tell a good steak from a bad one?

titans&bucs&bearsohmy! 2,745 Posted September 20, 2017 My ex used to always want to go to flemings or mortons for anniversaries and such. I don't like those places. If I'm gonna drop that kind of coin, I'd rather go somewhere interesting, like a French place or something. I agree with diminishing return. Yeah, those places steaks are better. But not so much better that I'm willing to pay 3x as much. And Fock you with your family style ala carte sides. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted September 20, 2017 Gibson's downtown Chicago, one of their best steaks is about $55. No need to pay much more than that.
