22 Prime

Birthday dinner a couple of weeks ago was at 22 Prime, Discovery Suites. They say it's one of the top steak places in the metro.

Now, I am not that fond of steaks (sorry!), but I'm always eager to try new places. Was happy that Rob thought of this restaurant.. superb date place, perfect for birthday dining :)


There was of course complimentary bread and dip. 


We had Ribeye Steak and Chops. The serving was quite HUGE. Apart from the actual meat, the plate came with other items that The food could've been perfect with a glass of wine, but I can't drink so had to settle with juice while Rob got the wine.


We enjoyed our food immensely. The Chops came with a side salad and a kind of wild rice that was really yummy. You can see the size of that porkchop, can't you? Filled up almost half of the plate! Despite the sauce, I found the chops a bit too dry for my taste. Nevertheless, it was packed with flavor. Salad acidity complemented the entire package.


The Ribeye came with two tiger prawns, some greens on a bed of mashed potato, and baked potato (carbs, carbs!). Now, having potato cooked two ways in one plate is my kind of dish, haha! Had the steak cooked medium rare and it came out just right. Juicy and not too gummy, seasoned perfectly and with yummy potatoes to boot :)


Needless to say, we were way too stuffed for dessert. I couldn't say no to some cappuccino though. 


Definitely a birthday treat to remember :) 22 Prime does hold it's end of the bargain in providing quality service and good food. Great for a date night.
