Angus Steakhouse, Leicester Square - London

After trawling around London all day it's sometimes hard to get to the place you planned on eating, you just want food right now. That is how we stumbled into the Angus Steak House, we’d gone into M&M world at Leicester Square to keep warm and then wanted food so went across and into here.

Now, this steak house is pretty swish and will definitely break the bank if you aren't careful. The cheapest steak is £17.50 without any extras! Although it was expensive we were too tired to go elsewhere so settled down for a lovely steak. We both chose the 8oz fillet steak and then got a portion of chips, one portion of onion rings and some béarnaise sauce to share.

When the steaks came they looked gorgeous and were cooked to perfection. I like my steak to be medium to well done so that there isn't any blood and it was just that. The salad that accompanied it was very nice with a lovely vinaigrette. I made sure to eat all my steak rather than filling up on chips and onion rings and I was glad I did as it was amazing. We got the béarnaise sauce to try and it was pretty tasty although quite rich so I couldn't eat a lot.

If you are into your steaks and have some money to burn I would definitely suggest visiting Angus Steak House on your trip to London.

Fancy a steak? El Gaucho, York

For my boyfriend's birthday we had a day trip to York. As we are major foodies when visiting new places, we decided to scope out where we would eat before we arrived. We chose a place for breakfast(brunch) and a place for tea. Unfortunately we arrived after the place we'd chose for breakfast stopped serving so had to find a cafe for a greasy English brekkie.

The place we chose for dinner was a suggestion by one of Matt's work colleagues. It was an Argentine steak house called El Gaucho. Me and Matt are lovers of steak and love to try new places so this was perfect for us.

As per usual we had a bit of trouble finding the place but that is just our bad sense of direction. It was down a street which had a lot of other lovely looking restaurants on. Inside it is quite small but there were a lot of tables dotted about as well as lots of random Argentine related art on the walls.

We both chose to have the sirloin steak - me choosing the 11oz and Matt choosing the 14oz! When it came it tasted lovely! It was full of flavour. I accidentally knocked all my salad off my plate whilst trying to cut my steak just after I took the above picture. I told the hostess and she didn't seem to mind too much...oops!

I should mention before the steak we were given a basket of bread with some sort of herby/garlic butter to put on. It was soo nice. I wanted more than one slice but didn't want to ruin my dinner.

If you are in York on a night time (it opens at 6pm) you should definitely try this out.

Have you been before? Do you love steak as much as I do?!
