For tonight's meal, Bistecca alla Florintine, with roasted fingerling potatoes and charred baby bok choi. Protection by Sig.

It's extremely uncivilized to not have your buttstock folded while at the table.

I'm surprised you don't know that.

Looks good. I have never had bok choi like that, or at all as far as I know. What does it taste like? I am always looking for nutrious side vegetables and I always here about bok choi on cooking shows.

ITs really common in Asian cuisine, not bitter. If you’ve tasted an Asian dish that seemed to have cabbage in it, it is likely bok Choi. This is the first time I’ve made it myself, I was looking for some “Treviso” another green I’ve never cooked, but wasn’t available at the store. Substituted baby bok Choi, worked great. Even my 6yo said it was “ok”. She demolished the steak however!

Cool, I will give it a try. I am trying to branch out. I have now been adding leeks to my salads instead of onions as they have a lot more nutrients and I like them. I had never had a leek in my life until now.

Didn't realize that Spyderco made a steak knife.

For a meal that good-looking, yours seems somewhat under-protected! Cool

Bistecca alla Florintine?

Looks delish!
