In the history of Steak Night never has more fortitude been shown by so few people. After Brad Ray and Don both punted for a record third time in a row – the gauntlet was thrown to me to host a place worthy of a special guest, a future politician and, well, Crenshaw.

Tight crew – but bonus points for Bill and Dave for coming straight from their opening ass kicking of the David Duval flight at the River Forest open.

Bavettes it was because Bavettes it should be. We started off hot with the marrow, the shrimp scampi (no more de jong) and the goat cheese. We each ate a loaf of bread before the steaks came.

Dave battled but the allergy pills, the bread and the conversation TKO’d him before the steaks. First time in steak night history we’ve had someone leave before the steaks – but since he wasn’t drinking – he has a good excuse of not thinking the steaks had already come.

We went family style on the ribeye and the bone in filet and both were solid. The corn Elote and the broccoli I were out of this world.

We celebrated Dave’s Bday in absentia and will post the pictures when I can figure it out.

Went next door w Crenshaw to play pool and I took his lunch money.
