observer Posted January 17, 2011 Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 Seems the most expensive beef steak comes from a breed of Japanese cattle. It's reported that an 8oz "Jap" steak will cost you over ?100 in Gordon Ramsay's London restaurant. (Source:- Countryfile BBC) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

observer Posted January 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 As I wasn't aware of "kobe" beef previously, I wouldn't have known what to look for - would I? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evil Sid Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 fing is though. how do you know it is KOBI beef and not some chunk off the local meat market. i mean beef is beef. once it is cooked how can you tell. do you get a certificate of proof or something. still most things in gordon ramseys places cost over ?100.

observer Posted January 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 Kobi beef has a unique appearance, due to the fat running in with the muscle, giving it a distinct marbling effect - plus (according to the reporter on the prog) it has a different taste and is far more tender than other steaks.
