Pearl #33 ~ Food Series: Fallen Angel

One of the best steaks of my life.  It had a cilantro sauce that couldn't have tasted better!

You may think that all we do when we're together is eat good food and take pictures of our blissful expressions while doing so.  It's true that this is a core pillar of our friendship.

I'm a steak lover.  Steak is my favorite food and in my nearly 30 years I have tasted some amazing steaks.  A handful, though, are a cut above the rest.  Literally.  These delectable cuts of meat hover in the recesses of my memory and set the bar of comparison high for the (hopefully) many future steak encounters yet to come. 

The steak at Fallen Angel in Cusco, Perú, was one such steak.  Topped with some sort of cilantro-based sauce, this piece of meat was cooked to perfection and managed to excite

every. single. tastebud.

To top it off, I was with the best of company.  The now infamous (at least in the realm of this blog) HubbyBubby was at my side enjoying one of the best steaks of her life.  The table had fish swimming under a plane of glass.  The décor and experience of the place convinced one that they had entered an other-worldly domain.  Perhaps that's the secret.  This particular steak was quite literally out of this world.
