***UPDATE: The price of this deal has gone up to $11.95 since this piece was written***
This is not a typo people. You are not seeing things. This week I made an amazing discovery, that adds Del Frisco’s (the enormous, upscale and extremely expensive steakhouse in the middle of Midtown Manhattan) to the list of official Midtown Lunches. THE Del Frisco’s. If you work in Midtown you have been to or know someone who has eaten, or more than likely work for someone who has eaten, at Del Frisco’s. All on the company dime, of course… after all, nobody pays for Del Frisco’s themselves!
Until today. Do not mistake this for a drill. This is real. I have discovered a loophole in the Del Frisco’s cortex that may stop the space time continuum. There is a meal…. at Del Frisco’s… that is delicious… and filling… that involves steak… and it is $9.95. I am not shitting you! While reading Andre Mika’s review of Del Frisco’s for dinner on his blog “Fork New York” I noticed this little mention:
I’ve been preaching about the filet tips and mashed potatoes on the bar menu for 2 years now (yes, they are still there for $10)…
That can’t be, right? $10? The burger there is $13.95. How could steak, in any form be less? But sure enough- I went to this place where Onion Rings cost $12.95, and poor men dare to dream, and there it was. Right there in plain English. At the top of the bar menu…
Filet tips w/ Chateau Potatoes. $9.95. Meaning that if you ignore the tax & tip (which we clearly will), eating at the Bar of Del Frisco’s is now… a Midtown Lunch!
