snoozer did you say scotch????? Single malt or blend??? Nothing like a neat single malt and good cigar. Well......I would take a timeout for a chica.
Shark bar yeah that is were its at hmmmm
Very true this is the same thing as Tony Bourdain eating raw Sushi quality chicken (not for me) but all fresh seafood can be eaten raw and a good steak is a wonderful thing Rare. Personally if the health of the place is a ? I will order it Medium Rare so that it is Red but at least warm center but anywhere else

Uh, that "someone" was me. And I beg to differ on your assesment.
Those particular Porterhouse steaks had been "dry aged" in Lou's reefer for 10 days.
Then, the night before cooking them, I applied a special dry rub (which I laid on thick!) containing, amoung other things, some sugar and ground coffee beans. That way when you grill it over high heat, you get a nice crust formed from the dry rub (easily mistaken for being burned)
And if you look at the picture carefully, you will see that that steak is pink (not red) on the inside - cooked just as the guy ordered it: Medium rare to medium.
I prefer my own steak to be medium rare.
And I will be cooking more steaks at the Shark Bar next week for another "ISOC Steak night" for Jayman and crew.
But I guess your not interested.
This is how I look at this place also. All the reviews I have read both here and on DR1 were negative. You cant have all negative reviews for your grand opening and on top of that be more expensive than most other places.
As far as steaks go if you want USDA and its available at the Shark Bar thats going to be the best choice. If not El Toro isnt bad in Sosua.
The best domestic DR steak I ever had was at Kuka Makara in Santiago near the monument. It wasnt a typical steak it was some specialty steak dish they make. The sauce and seasoning made the beef very tasty and tender. I would definitely order that again.
Jimmy owes me a dollar!
i had filet mignon/medium with vegetables and i thought it was awesome. everyone at my table had the filet as well and also enjoyed. they had some live musicians playing spanish music. i liked it
just stayed week at terra linda ate breakfast a few lunches and dinners there everything was good !!!! the so called $10 chica breakfast charge only costs what the guest actually orders beautiful unless shes a pig ahaha the place isnt really opened yet talked with vincent one of the owners hes doing changes everyday wants a quality place the musicans idea came from my crew who sat at tables on sidewalk engaging the chicas when street players came by we had them stay about 1/2 hr chicas loved it crowd gathered
I had one of the best steaks I have ever had in latin America @ Steak and Sirloin it took a long time but we were the first served in the opening on Xmas.My friends Novia who actually works there now had that Shrimp and Pasta so I ate all of hers after I finished my steak,and I never eat anything off someone elses plate ever but it was so damn good.A ISOC member KOKI9290 asked me how it was and how much?My reply was fuck I dont know its like monopoly money to me!LOL

I am in love with Jimmydr. I want him to be mine forever!
Ate at this place last Tuesday and was pleasantly surprised. One of the waitresses there worked at Rocky's for years, and is a really sweet girl. She actually recognized me from previous trips and convinced me to try the place out.
I had the seafood paella. It was absolutely wonderful with huge pieces of lobster, and plenty of shrimp and assorted shellfish. And it had the crust on the bottom that is essential for a good paella. One of the more expensive items on the menu. But totally worth it, as they give you enough for three people. I actually ate on it for two days.
