Not For Veggetarians



My husband had heard about this restaurant where they make the best steak served on hot stone. A "hot stone" is like a hot plate that the steak somes on and keeps sizzling on it the whole time. So we went to check it out.

They had a choice of beef or horse meat and then the full portion and a half portion. We decided on the horse, I know some of you may not approve of eating horse but it is really tender and tasty and quite alright here in Switzerland. And we both ordered the full portion. We were starving from a day of skiing. The waitress looked at me and made a suggestion that I take the half portion. I hesitated but agreed.

The dinner arived and I was oh so glad I went for the half portion! The half portion was a 300g piece of horse while the full one was half a kilo!! Of course I couldn't finish it, I could only manage to put away half of the half portion. My husband ate all of his but with difficulties :) We took the rest home. We both swore we won't eat ever again, but that only lasted for that evening while our tummies were overfilled. Looking at the picture now, I won't mind having another one of those monsters!
