WTF are you talking about?

It is quite commonplace to use butter on steaks, including quality steaks. A well known steakhouse chain that does this is Ruth's Chris- and they do a fine steak.

Yes they do. I used to sling jerk chicken on the street outside a reggae club across the street from ruths chris in Portland. I'd go in there all nasty from cooking off 50lb of chicken and enjoy a nice steak.

Timber's restaurant is in Thailand, wtf do we care about the price in USA ?

I am curious as to the cost comparison of buying a quality piece of meat like that here compared to USA.

Seems more expensive in Thailand.

Nothing to do with what Timber sells his steaks for as I have already commented that his prices are more than reasonable.

Who know's and who cares, she's not eating it, me and my mates are

I used to buy from a local grocery in Springfield MO called Harter House. They are a growing store and part of their mainstay is their exceptional butchery department. I would buy my meat in the same fashion I do here. The going rate for non-dry aged was about the same as I pay in Thailand. The steak you guys are coming in for ran me $10/lb. I'm selling it for $15. This is about what I'd pay back there. Thanks to the scale of economy in Thailand I like to think its cheaper. This helps me sleep at night.

Indeed, great prices for a very personalised service, and i think it is that service that is going to make his business a success, i doubt you will find any where else in Bangkok right now with the same standard.

What time with you be canceling your reservation Noodles?

^If i did that then Walrus and his mate would be eating a lot of steak

This is my point exactly. Thanks.

Is not succulent, tasty or kind
Its death for no reason
And death for no reason is murder

BKKandrew's missus seems to be not muslim but from the non-beef eating buddhist variety like mine, so actually they don't care about helal and eat pork but no beef.

I have seen on your menu that you also have some tasty sounding non-beef food.

^Yep, plenty of other good choices available.

Bangkok is an international market. Lots of different people and their food rules. You gotta cover your bases.

Yeah, you see yourself as a half-thai kickboxing coach who poses with sem-famous people

Hey Timber, Did you ever see anyone strap on that 72 oz steak out at the Country Kitchen on stark st..
I did, I saw a friend of mine eat it and satisfied them and he didn't pay.
Coarse that was a big bastard, 6' 5" and 150 KG.

I don't like Halal slaughtered meat. I prefer mine non-Halal.

Halal is nothing more than medieval butchery and is unspeakably cruel for the animal.

^ Though in Isaan they will slaughter it that way too which is, letting the cow bleed out (and I am talking about cattle here).
