Driving past all the cattle ranches and seeing all the happy grazing cows made me want to eat a steak. so I went to Quincy's steakhouse in Florence, CO. It is one of a four-restaurant chain. it is known for its very simple menu. Friday to saturday it is prime rib. From monday to thursday they serve filet mignon. that's it:
i appreciate the level of decision making required.
The price was great. The food... not so much... It's been such a long time since i last ate a whole steak but I'm 99% sure that what i ate wasn't a filet mignon, it was steak made from meat glue. It may have been locally ranched grass-fed beef? Which would explain the toughness and slight gaminess of the meat? the best part was the horseradish. and the baked potato was good too.
The wine was exceptionally oily (literally) and astringent. but it got better by the bottom of the third glass ($3.50 each).
The most interesting part of the dinner was the gorgeously cute waitress with blonde hair and dark eyes. she was the kind of small town girl songs are written about. I wanted to ask her all about her life and why she is working at a budget steakhouse in Florence, CO. She asked me if i had moved here... i had to disappoint her and tell her i was just driving through... watching the rain fall was nice.
