Dinner was steaks from Whole Foods. The RG made them, and actually, the entire meal. There was slaw made with red and green cabbage, plus Persian cucumbers and onion. Also he made this interesting appetizer. It was served on bread: Pastrami paste with herbs, cheese, and tomato, then broiled. To me, this was really fantastic as I never get to have bread.

For dessert, we had coconut sorbet.

The best part of the meal was how the wine and the steak complemented each other. He chose a Rioja, Valserrano Gran Reserva 2008. I cannot even begin to tell you how aromatic this wine is. Bite of steak/wine. Bite of steak/wine. Heaven.
