  • This week we visit Rubicon Steakhouse to try some beef from Hokkaido.
    Having no rating or species rated, I was quite reserved coming into today's episode. But, boy was I surprised.
    The high degree of marbling combined with the generous cut really made for a more than luxurious experience. Unfortunately, there were some apparent misses.

    I’m glad you gave them 3 steaks because you just cannot find any other steak that can beat them for quality and taste for the price. I’ve been to Cut by Wolfgang and while they have amazing steaks, there is something about this hole in a wall restaurant that serves mind blowing steak that is a MUST TRY BEFORE DEATH. 😂

    Enjoying this series, keep it up! Maybe the smaller store & short opening hours help to keep operating cost manageable, so they can serve quality steaks at this price point? Congrats on the Ergotune chair sponsor!!

      thank you! I thought about that but the main cost is rental and there is no discount on that. but anyway, I cannot really comment when I don't have their business data.

    Came here just a day ago after watching this. Got 1 sirloin and 1 ribeye, ordered both medium rare. Sirloin was cooked perfectly, but ribeye a few parts were rare instead of medium rare. I personally dont mind rare but wasn't expecting the steak to be unevenly cooked, but the fat was still rendered nicely so it was very delicious. The crust on both were incredible and looked even better than in this video though, and the steaks weren't overly salted which was a good thing. The uneven cook aside, this was definitely one of the best steaks I tried.

    When it comes to Japanese beef, the sirloin will always be substantially more expensive than the ribeye, because the ribeye is considered too fatty (contains too much unnecessary fat).
    By the way, this place uses F1 beef, which can be almost as marbled as an A5 wagyu sometimes, depending on the cow.

    I’m glad u like it. Can I take (some) credit for the rec? Haha 😂
    Anyhow, I prefer the sirloin to the ribeye. It’s less fatty. Didn’t notice the salt when I was last there. And yes, the place has no ambience but it’s soooo yummy!

    • @Alderic.
      @Alderic.  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      yes you may hahaha.
      salting a steak is tricky I guess. different people have different tolerance for salt. probably a one-off.

    They could do with more variety of sides and desserts but otherwise it's still my favorite steakhouse in sg. I like dipping the roasted garlic into the steak sauce and smooshing it onto the steak and eating that in 1 bite. Try it some time.

    Hi, i'm looking for good steaks and a fancy restaurant in Singapore for my Birthday. I've been to Keef The Beef and Bisteca to name a few. I was planning to make a reservation at Wolfgang, do you think it's a good choice?

    • @Alderic.
      @Alderic.  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Wolfgang is definitely a solid choice, I would throw CUT in there as well. Although, these 2 are slightly pricier and you might not find them better than Bistecca.
      happy birthday in advance!

    Went to eat 1kg ribeye few days ago. Steak crust was good but it's not so nice as you described. Took us quite some time to chew it. It was juicy but the juice has no taste at all.
    Some parts was just fats all the way.
    So I don't know if it's one off or just my taste bud is different m

    • @Mew77778
      @Mew77778 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You're not alone. went there twice. once for sirloin once for ribeye. The ribeye had a lot of fats (that wasn't even rendered). Out of 500g, i would say about 200g worth of fats

      I think medium rare might be safer. you don't want too much of that fat to render down and be left on the pan.

      it would still be a tough sell but I think the fattiness of a steak is easier for someone who doesn't like steak. as compared to the lean, "bloody" flavor.

    Visited Rubicon recently and this has to be the closest to what a Guga Steak tastes like, insanely value and premium fattyness.

    Thats why i enjoy grilling pure beef fats and having it in the kitchen. Just $4/kg for good quality grass fed beef fats. Not everyone understands 😅
    Their sirloin is likely more expensive because it comes from the supplier with huge fat caps. And they trim off huge chunks of fats from the sirloin before they are able to serve it.
    Plus how many people would really even know that the Ribeye is actually Ribeye when the whole piece of beef is so marbled? They could replace the ribeye with chuck eye steak and nobody would know ESPECIALLY when they slice the steak into strips before serving. Its a good way to earn $ 😊
    And if you would care to notice them selling "Lean" steak. I can only guess thats the way to sell the other parts of the chuck roll that doesn't pass the appearance test of a Ribeye.
    As long as customer is happy with it after eating, who really care about ethics right? 😂

    • @Alderic.
