Back at The George for Steak Night!

Well I promised I'd be back at The George Hotel in South Melbourne. And on a cold, wet winter's Tuesday, thought nothing could be more perfect than a nice porterhouse steak with a glass of red.

Now it's probably not the best shot of the steak but then again, it wasn't the best steak I've had. Definately not the worst, and for 10 bucks I can't complain but I believe that I should just a little..

It was a little on the small side. Even for a 10 dollar steak. No chips or salad but the thinly cut steak was simply resting gently on steamed vegies and some roasted chat potatoes. Drizzled in a very nice mushroom sauce and I had a glass of Shiraz with it which all went down very well. Although I was still hungry afterwards! Maybe because I skipped breakfast and lunch but still.. I was hoping for something a bit more substantial.

I guess part of the $10 charge includes the nice atmosphere and decor of the place. Quite classy and upmarket but not in a pretentious way. I think I mentioned that in the last review. Anyway.. The George Hotel in South Melbourne (across from the market) is a good choice if you want a tasty, restaurant quality steak but aren't a big eater. Their regular meals are actually quite sizeable though, so either way it's well worth a look! Ask for Billy or Linda and tell them we sent you, they will maybe know what you're talking about. ;)
