Our first visit to Bizen here (#B2-22 Funan, 107 North Bridge Road, tel : +65 6970 0481).
I've been curious for a long while now about the delmonico cut. From what I was able to glean, it's a cut that originated in the mid 1800s by Delmonico's in New York and it seems that no one was about to ascertain which part of the cow it came from. Wiki states that it can be prepared from various cuts and it's usually ribeye. Different sources (which probably aren't authoritative) have their own definitions so trying to define it here feels like I'm grasping at straws hence I'm not going there. Pretty sure this one was a ribeye. 300g. Not thick cut.
Meat's really tender and has good marbling. We finished this with a smile on our faces. Note to self : don't get the coleslaw next time. It's not the same coleslaw as Astons.
Tried their Zeppin burger. From the description and looks, it's a half pounder with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, cheese, bacon and a fried egg. And some brown sauce which wasn't half bad.
Pretty large and unwieldy with either the bun flopping or the insides slipping out through the eating so the construct wasn't good. Meat's dry-ish and somewhere between medium well and well done. Not so different from a Quarter Pounder from McD. Would have been nice if they had lettuce-ed it up pretty like Shake Shack but I guess they probably thought it would cost too much. Tomato didn't add to it but the onions did their job cutting through the rest of the burger with their sharpness.
Will not get it again.
There's free ice cream. Seems to be similar to the one from Haidilao. The lime flavour's good.
