Anyone tried Ruth’s Chris or Wolfgang’s yet? So far, Bedrock tops my chart.
Wolfgang is pretty good. Their steak is pretty much a copycat of Peter Luger, so for this style of steakhouse you gotta set your expectations accordingly (as in, don't go expecting 10 different types of grass fed organic beef lol).

The porterhouse at Ruth Chris's is the best I have ever tasted.. though my only other experiences with porterhouse is only at Mortons and the Steakhouse@Clarkquay

Didn't think much of Ruth's Chris at all.

Had a couple of steak dinners over the weekend. Visited Wakanui to try their 1kg bone-in ocean beef dry-aged rib-eye.

Wasn't too impressed unfortunately. I think I like my steaks a little fattier: This one was a little too lean and too "grass-fed" for my tastes. Also the binchotan doesn't put a nice crusty sear on the steak (which is how I like it).

I also finally after so many years of thinking "some day I will go," I visited Cut at MBS Full review is on blog, but anyway in a nutshell the cooking technique is really the best I've had in SG. Terrific crust and yet edge-to-edge perfect temperature.

I don't like the noise levels (too high) and light levels (too low) though, and service is a bit "meh" for being a 1mich star.

Apologies for weird colour tint on photo, it's REALLY dark in there and I only had my mobile phone with me.

I didn't like CUT one bit. The Hokkaido "Snow", Tomakomai, Filet Mignon was too soft for my liking and it lacked flavour. Very disappointing considering I paid $245++ for 120g.

Haha well, that's why I personally don't like A4-A5 wagyu's when done as a steak. The fat content being so high makes it too fatty / too soft, I think perhaps not having grown up in Japan makes us prefer steaks with a decent amount of bite to them.

Wife and I had the same sentiments when trying the rib-eye sampler at Sear @ RP50 too. The kobe itself was a bit too fatty, too soft, and we much preferred the "inferior" Aussie grain-fed cow.

The thing is, I've had really good A5 Kobe steak in Kobe.

I cook for this weekend BBQ
100 day grain feed aus beef
Brought at cold storage, it's a pity I didn't get more. On wrapper it say 1.1kg but I think it weight more than 1.2kg. done a reverse sear.
Cook with the steak on cold.side of the gril at 375f @ 20 mins, done a quick sear @ 1 min per side with basting from the melted butter and meat juice from the tray below.
Result, very juicy and tender medium rare meat!
