I 've never had it and am curious to try it. Any local reccomendations? Mon Apr 25 15:30:24 -0700 2005 0 Jay 1 936372 I wouldn’t necessarily call it a recommendation but Bistro du Coin has steak tartar (a la carte). So does Galileo, but you have to get it though their tasting menu when last I was there. Mon Apr 25 16:08:34 -0700 2005 936366 0 bgoldhab 2 936636 Les Halles makes steak tartare tableside.

Tue Apr 26 09:10:34 -0700 2005 936366 0 OceanPt 1 936404 I had an excellent steak tartare last night at Bistro Bis, served with garlic chips and garnished with frisee and cress. Tue Apr 26 09:20:50 -0700 2005 936366 0 Banco 2 936406 Bis is the best I've had in DC Tue Apr 26 09:43:13 -0700 2005 936404 0 Bonz 1 936407 If anyone's interested, there's a korean version of steak tartare also. It's called Yook Hwe, and the last time I had it was at Hee Been. The steak comes out julienned, and they crack a raw egg over it and add sesame oil, radish, and other seasonings. It tasted pretty good, but it's a large serving, and even though I'm an adventurous eater, I found it a bit challenging to finish the entire thing. I took the rest home and microwaved it the next day. Tue Apr 26 09:45:14 -0700 2005 936366 0 RL 1 936411 I saw it on the menu at the Daily Grill on M & 18th the last time I was there. Haven't felt "Gordon Gekko" enough to try it yet. Tue Apr 26 11:18:40 -0700 2005 936366 0 cf 2 936415 "Gordon Geko" That was awesome. I've had it at the Daily Grill as well and it's quite good. Tue Apr 26 13:10:49 -0700 2005 936411 0 OceanPt 1 936455 If you're in Baltimore, Petit Louis has it back on their menu for now. I've had it three times, each time as good as my Mom's. I highly recommend it. Tue Apr 26 20:31:36 -0700 2005 936366 0 BaltFoodie
