  • About

In French, there’s no distinction between medium and medium rare and anything above à point is considered well done, seldom ordered except by foreigners. A steak has reached medium when all fleshiness is gone and the meat has the texture of a flexed muscle rather than a limp one. There will be a lot of pink juices on the surface of the meat. The meat is pink when you cut into it, with no trace of red translucency.
