Last Saturday Lynn, Eve and I went to Bluefire Grill Melbourne Central for dinner.
I wouldn’t say this is the best Melbourne steak house. The service wasn’t that good. We ordered a bottle of wine but the waitress corked the bottle. She did not bother to let us try our wine and pour half a glass to each to us. No wonder I was gone by the time we had dessert.
For entrées
Lynn ordered a smoked salmon terrine with crème fraiche, Philadelphia cheese, capers and chives
Eve and I ordered oysters from the southern regions to share.
We had chilled oysters in 4 Ways: Natural with lemon, tequila & tabasco bloody mary, shallots &sherry vinaigrette and citrus & herb dressing
As for our mains, Lynn ordered eye fillet, Eve had the porterhouse and I had the rib eye. We had our steak with mushroom and garlic jus and the steaks were served with potato gratin and roast field mushrooms

Medium rare eye fillet

The cheese lovers: Lynn and Eve ordered a Chocolate & Cheese Assiette platter

The platter consist of hand pierced blue triple cream, cloth wrapped cheddar, lavosh crackers, Yarra Valley chilli jam, chocolate molten pudding, pistachio strawberries and dark chocolate shot.
I only had the chocolate molten pudding. Sorry no cheezey business for me…hehehe…
Unique way of serving tea but not pratical. My fingers got burned while trying to pour the tea.

I look stuffed and gone!
