To me, the best time to go on a budget is during your city's restaurant week/month. They usually take a few of the cuts out of the rotation but it saves you some bucks.

Typically my birthday is in August. Typically, Houston Restaurant Week is in August. Do the math as to where I like to celebrate the "Feast of my Birth!"

Could I have eaten $40 worth of food tonight on quantity alone? Easily.

Instead I opted to stay within comfortable limits of fullness and let the quality made up for it. The best explanation I've got for the taste tonight was that it was beef that tasted like it did when I was a kid 40+ years ago, most notably on the delicious nature of the fat on the edges.

I don't understand. Why not


The other thing I love to do at a Brazilian BBQ is just eat slow. We will sometimes spend 2 hours there and just savor every bite.

Since it's too expensive to go regularly, I love making the most of it.
