Steakhouse


Long Beach, California, September 5, 2013—

THE ONLY THING to order in a steakhouse, as we all know, is steak. Possibly a pork chop, or rack of lamb. Certainly not chicken, and not, under any circumstance, fish. 

But the red meat at this joint all cost more than I wanted to spend, and besides the beef was all corn-fed, and the menu actually boasted about that. So I ordered the pasta carbonara, without the irrelevant chicken. And you know what? It wasn't bad, not at all. Spinach on the side, and a small green salad.
