Moon's Steakhouse: 1-for-1 deal Tuesday, 08 December 2009 00:00 Written by BEVERLY!

It's not particularly easy to get a good 'ol steak in China. You pretty much can only find it in fine-dining restaurants.. very very few casual/cheap places have steak, and if they do, you best stay away from it ;) And so we decided to treat ourselves at Moon's Steakhouse.

Moon's Steakhouse is a lovely, luxe restaurant with fantastic service (the manager was a total dream) and beautifully plush sofas to relax on. The menu's fairly limited, but it's not a problem because you're on there for one thing - their steaks!

We appreciated the bread basket at the start, though it would have been great served with a soft herb butter, instead of (or accompanied with) the salsa and yoghurt dips.

We decided to start off with the Seafood Chowder soup and Minestrone soup, which was a very good idea because we had to wait ONE HOUR for our steaks to arrive. It was unbelievable, and had me quite irate. I would have expected the waitress to warn us or at least apologise, but nada. The soups came out really quickly and so left us with a long and prolonged 1 hour wait. Both soups were nice, but nothing spectacular. They, strangely, came out in small cheap-bistro-style cups... not in a large wide bowl or served with some garlic bread. Tres odd, especially since they were not cheap! So after that 1 hour wait, our steaks finally came. They were just blissful. They're a steakhouse and yep, they do steaks brilliantly. I had the Prosciutto Wrapped Filet Mignon topped with Bearnaise, which was beautifully charred on the outside and tender on the inside. I loved it . They are very VERY expensive though, more than what you'd even pay in Australia! We had a 1-for-1 deal, which made it worth it, but otherwise the regular price is pretty painful.

Still, a great (and very filling) dinner and so happy to have had our steak fix!
