Saturday night, I enjoyed a fine filet mignon from Bern’s Steak House, in Tampa, Florida. I’m not sure I can do it justice, but this place takes selection — at least with steaks and wines/spirits — to an extreme. You may review the menu [15 page PDF, 200K] if you dare. Page 9 begins the excursion into the steaks section of the menu, where you are given lengthy descriptions of the different cuts and cooking styles, and then asked to choose size and thickness of your piece of meat from a busy grid. That is only the beginning, but I’m too tired even thinking about the experience to write it all down.
I will advise you to make reservations, should you be visiting Tampa. The restaurant is worth one meal in your lifetime, certainly.
