MORTON'S STEAK HOUSE
HONOLULU, HAWAII
My rich friend with a large expense account treated me to a Holiday lunch at Morton's. During the Holiday Season, they have a special lunch menu for $35 per person. You can select soup or salad and an entree. The meal starts with a huge piece of bread topped with onions. Served up warm with butter. I chose the Morton's salad. Kind of like a Caesar Salad topped with Blue Cheese and Anchovies. My friend ordered the Caesar Salad and it looked about the same but did not include anchovies. He ordered a side of anchovies. The salad is huge. Big enough for two people. I liked it, but there was way too much dressing. The thing was swimming in dressing. For our entrees, we both selected the Filet Mignon. This was a nice piece of thick beef. We ordered Medium Rare and the middle was really pink and a bit cold. My friend did not finish his steak because of the rareness. He was full by that time so no complaint. The steak is served with a nice portion of mashed potatoes. I thought they were really good.
