Did I just sign my death certificate?

Went downstairs to the new dining venue.  Grilled flank steak.  The one they had out was medium at best.  He had a smaller steak that was well done.  He then asked if I wanted chimi churri sauce on it.  I was too emabarrassed to tell him I had no idea what chimi churri sauce is, so I acted non chalant and said "of course".

There is now green stuff on top of my steak.  Will I die if I eat it?

Should I call down and have a bottle of A-1 or Heinz 57 sent up?

I have a hard time with people preparing or accepting a steak more than medium rare.  You just know you are getting substandard flavor and texture, that is as sure as any thing could ever be.  And in TX?  What has happened to TX?

I don't know what is in that sauce either, btw.

Ok, now I do:

Chimichurri

First it was chili in beans, now it is overcooked tough steak that tastes like shoe leather.  I am just glad the power stayed on while I ate.

I gotta tell ya that is about the least appetizing thing I've seen in a while.

I am not a fan of chimichurri.

Oh for goodness sake!  :rolleyes:

Anything you need to know is from that Mary Poppins movie where Dick Van Dyke sang that song, "Chim Chimi Churri".

This sounds like a bunch of chitty chitty bang bang

chimichurri is awesome, but flank steak should be medium rare. 

A-1 or Heinz will kill you. Isn't it just sugar and brown crap?

The best comeback line I ever heard a a steakhouse was when a man replied "I sure hope not." when the waitor asked him if he needed any A-1 or other steak sauce. It was so quick it was great.
