not to mention... a chef worth his salt will buy entire cuts and break them down himself which means he has a wide variety of choices to give you

take a ribeye for example.

so you clean up the whole thing and portion it. as the you go along the rib the steaks get progressively tougher and leaner.

so what happens is the shitty fat free tough as old boots ones get put in their own special pile for well done steaks and rude customer (or those that come in at close) then the chef has his little collections of the remainder with varying marbling, sinews etc.

you order the correct doneness and he will get one of the better ones.

you tell the waiter to "just let the chef cook it" they will go straight to the "piece de resistance"

Because ultimately, "rare" is subjective.

The guy doesn't know you, he only knows the 99% of other people that have come through and asked for "rare"

The only way you could ever really get it right, is if you go to a place and either

a) Luck out
b) go there enough times that you know what a baseline is for how they cook their meat

Same applies to "spicy" too

easy. bring me a steak. make it rare.

simple. could be f**king 4 inch thick or half inch. i want it rare. simple as fark.

every other flamin mongrel in the world at top restaurants can do it. why is it so hard in australia.

because a rare ribeye / scotch fillet for example is pure shit. it has fat that hasn't broken down and tastes like ass

a rare eye fillet is great on the other hand

It's really not. See chart below

Sure there are in betweens, but you're not gonna whinge about a shade lighter or darker as long as it's closer to what you want.

should have been more specific there.

f**kING RARE.

I DONT GIVE A SHIT WHAT YOU THINK.

f**kING RARE.

chicken pork beef snail horse pigeon rabbit human.

rare. because thats what i asked for. and because your job is to cook food for me how i ask for it.

(i seem to have some hang ups about the quality of chef in this country hamish, this in way states i think your shite, im sure your a lovely chef, and that you trained at the fluer del loo de laeeuriruf french word and you meat is magnificent)

however of the 100 plus steaks ive eaten in this country about 2 have been cooked rare... and most have been shite. sure 90% of these restraunts where not "hipster class" but still give the people what they ask for man.

rant over.

    • I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......  
    • I get into huffs with people when I suggest the MX5 looks so much better as a coupe than it does as convertible. Pretty sure I don't prefer the convertible version of anything. Good job on the hardtop! The next buyer will appreciate.
    • IMO wrap does have its uses, but like you said, quality wrap, and professional installation, would probably cost want a quality paint job does, but, the paint, if maintained, is basically for life, and much easier to touch up if required  In other news: it's pissing down here, with thunder, lightning and only some small hail "at this stage", luckily all "my" cars are undercover  I've also been contacted by a guy in Newcastle about the SS, he said he will come down next weekend for a look, we'll see how that transpires I guess 🫰
    • Nah, I'm not an a-hole, ha ha!   I do like the colour match. Some of the carbon fibre wraps are quite freaking horrible. There's one a local company I know uses, and it looks damn good! Also very very expensive per metre to buy! ha ha ha It might be cheaper to respray the roof than use the good CF Wrap, ha ha!
    • Please noooooooo 😭 As for wrap, no thank you mate, I've seen and used "carbon fibre" wrap before, and for these hard tops, they look soooo good when colour matched Like this >>>
