This steak and seafood restaurant is located on the 4th floor of Helen Hotel, Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street, the first commercial street in China. The set menu offers some non-main dishes, which is also an important reason why I chose it.
The steak here is very authentic. The Wagyu sirloin has clear texture and aroma. The cooking time is just right and perfect. The meat is tender and fresh, juicy, and delicious.
This steakhouse is located in the Helen Hotel. The decoration is very nostalgic. The bread for the appetizer is delicious and the lobster soup is very flavorful. The meat is said to have won an award and the taste is really good. I personally think it is better than those famous restaurants on the riverside. The presentation of the main dishes is also very interesting, with large plates. However, I have to give my English back to the teacher. I can only order by sign language. Shouldn't the store hire a few more Chinese waiters? The key is that this restaurant does not charge service fee.
[Mint] Environment: It is located upstairs of the old Helen Hotel, and is conveniently located on the pedestrian street. The environment is a classic steakhouse style. There is an aging room at the door. If there are many people, you can order a tomahawk. [Service bell] Service: They will come to ask about the taste from time to time, and they are quite professional. | Appetizer bread^ Free appetizer bread, a fig cranberry bread🍞 is delicious, dip it in butter [naughty] | Caesar salad^ A very classic one, lettuce and crisp bread with a special sauce, very refreshing. | Choose a knife before serving the steak^ You can choose a knife when eating steak, and I chose a French steak knife, which is quite neat. The steak is Golden Phoenix, m6-7 grade ribeye, and I asked for medium rare, the fat is evenly distributed, very juicy. In addition, lobster is added, baked with cheese, and the meat is very fresh and elastic. A very professional steakhouse, you can consider getting a tomahawk for your next birthday [naughty]
Entering the restaurant, the New Year atmosphere is rich. The overall European and American retro decoration style is elegant and noble, and the leather sofas are comfortable and high-end. The restaurant also has a very romantic starry sky ceiling. The candlelight dinner under the stars is romantic. Flip the menu and choose the steak first. The restaurant is very considerate to divide the menu into single and double and multi-person sharing prices. I ordered the M8-9 grade ribeye, 688 yuan for 400 grams, which is a very conscientious price. I heard that the boss is a famous steak trader, so from the ranch to the table, he enjoys a direct supply channel, and the cost-effectiveness is also very high, which is equivalent to 50-60% off the same price of other restaurants. The steps of serving the meal are the same as those of the top steakhouses. The waiter will show you the raw wagyu steak to be grilled. It comes from the Golden Phoenix purebred wagyu beef that won the 2019 World Steak Challenge. The snowflake-like texture is heart-warming and reveals a different kind of delicacy. We ordered 7 minutes rare according to our personal preferences. The grilled steak is golden in color, and the aroma of beef fills the air. The scallops next to it are crystal white, and are dotted around the plate like jade beads, which are delicious. After taking a bite, the steak is crispy and crispy on the surface, and the inside is tender and tough. The juice keeps bursting out as you chew it. The unique fat taste of beef is mellow and rich, lingering, and turns into sweetness between the lips and teeth. The sense of happiness is instantly overwhelming. This is the best delicacy in the world. You can order steak with a special offer. I ordered pan-fried Hokkaido scallops, which were served with the steak. The diameter of the scallop is very large, fresh and round. It is fried and grilled with butter. It is soft, tender, juicy, delicate and smooth, fresh and not vulgar. This little freshness not only combines the greasiness of the oil, but also enriches the layering of the taste, which can be called the finishing touch. The restaurant's oysters are 208 half a dozen, which are displayed at the entrance, with three varieties. They are called the nobles of the water, and the French and New Zealand ones are the best. The store prepared two types of oysters from France and one from New Zealand. The meat is white and tender, crystal clear, and as smooth as toffee, which can arouse your appetite just by looking at it. Eating oysters does not require complicated cooking skills, just a few drops of lemon juice. One bite, the smooth taste is like tofu, with a hint of chewiness, and a sweet aftertaste. The freshness and saltiness in the meat is the taste of the sea. When chewing, it seems that the ocean suddenly floods into your taste buds, opening up a new world for you. In the end, you can't help but drink all the juice in the shell. Only top-quality oysters can bring out the deliciousness so vividly. In addition, oysters are divided into male and female. Male oysters have a crisp taste, while female oysters have soft and tender meat. Interested friends can experience it. There is even a choice of Hungarian beef soup in the soup. It was once popular when Western food just became popular in Shanghai more than ten years ago, and then it was gradually replaced by cream mushroom soup and pumpkin soup, disappearing in the long river of time. I didn't expect that I could still taste the old-fashioned Hungarian characteristics here. The soup is ruddy in color, a bit like borscht. After taking a sip, the soup is fragrant and flavorful, the beef is tender, and the slightly sour and spicy taste can open up the taste buds, warming the heart and stomach. The foreign brother who served us spoke English with a slight accent, but the dishes were introduced in detail and I basically understood it. Overall, he was very considerate.
✨After eating Wellington, which is in its heyday, and tasting the well-known American Tomahawk, after the clamor, it turns out that beef itself is not the most important thing. Fortunately, a J Prime restaurant with a good appearance and excellent quality has been opened. The European and American retro starry ceiling is unforgettable. The twinkling planetary balls are like the movement of the universe, deep and charming. At night, it is even more eye-catching. I only regret that I don’t have a good figure to wear a European fishtail dress. ✨As the star-rated restaurant promoted by Shanghai on the tip of the tongue, its beef is purebred chilled beef air-shipped to Shanghai. I curiously checked the qualifications of its meat. It is certified by the meat associations of Australia, the United States and Canada, which are highly valuable associations. These three countries are also the three countries with the best beef quality in the world. ✨I heard that the chef is a world chef with 30 years of experience. Many Michelin restaurants in Germany, France and Italy have left his footprints. One more point is too old and one point is too raw. The delicious steak is presented to me. "Australian pure blood Wagyu beef eye" m8-9 is of superb quality. It is made in a professional German imported acid-draining cabinet. Looking at the chaotic marbled meat pieces, it is mouth-watering. Before making it, the waiter will show the steak selected that day to the guests. The introduction is professional but not boring. He will also let you choose tableware, German trident, French bee, I chose a light and cute one. As the slightly burnt smell drifted in, the sizzling oil gathered on the edge of the plate, and the cut pink tender steak was eager to be chewed in its original flavor. The taste of the rib eye is really great. "French cream seafood soup" As the weather gets colder, you must order a bowl of warm soup every time. This French cream seafood soup is beyond imagination. It has a smooth taste, mellow and sweet fragrance, and there are small seafood at the bottom, but there is no fishy smell of seafood. It is very delicious. The "Black Cod" contains cod and two pieces of squid. The fish is very tender and tastes good. The sauce has a little bit of mustard and mayonnaise. The cod is very juicy, and the chopped peppers made of green and red peppers on top feel like a modification of the traditional Western restaurant method. It is very surprising. Tips: 1. Suitable for couples' gatherings and company gatherings. There are also private rooms near the window tables. 2. The New Year's Eve dinner is open as usual, the first to fifth days of the first lunar month are closed, and the sixth day of the first lunar month is open as usual. 3. Various theme menus and changing dishes will be launched from time to time. I heard that there will be a new menu for Valentine's Day. I look forward to it.
Suddenly I wanted to eat steak, so I ordered a set meal on a certain platform, 138 per person for lunch, and went alone. The environment is good, inside the hotel, it is relatively quiet, but a little cold. The seafood soup is good, but it was taken away too quickly, and it was taken away before I finished it. The steak is a little greasy, and the outside part has a good charred texture. The dessert is just the right amount, not too sweet. The service is really good, thumbs up!
