Porterhouse
Set
(AUD
$36.90)
@
The
Mitre
Tavern.
.
Stopped
by
The
Mitre
Tavern
for
a
quick
dinner.
An
Austalian
institution
since
1868,
the
shingled
pre-Victorian
cottage
houses
a
well-worn
pub
(and
is
the
oldest
standing
structure
in
Melbourne).
.
The
Mitre
Tavern
has
seen
many
a
business
deal
discussed
over
its
worn
wooden
tables,
and
the
financial
and
legal
suits
still
frequent
the
place
on
week
nights.
.
Ambience
at
The
Mitre
Tavern
harkens
back
to
the
good
ole
days
before
the
early
stock
market
crash,
with
warm
lighting
and
tightly
packed
wooden
benches
and
tables
arrayed
around
a
bustling
bar
counter
and
entrance.
.
Service
is
just
as
friendly
and
affable,
staff
demonstrate
good
product
knowledge
on
the
menu,
and
cheerfully
serve
orders.
The
bartender
is
busily
engaged
with
customers
all
night.
.
Food
at
The
Mitre
Tavern
is
classic
British
English
and
Australian
cuisine,
they're
originally
known
as
being
a
premier
steakhouse,
but
have
since
expanded
to
offer
well-executed
pub
grub
and
other
comfort
dishes.
.
I
was
hangry
for
a
solid
beef
steak,
and
The
Mitre
Tavern
surpassed
expectations.
This
meal
is
served
with
a
fresh
Garden
Salad,
including
crisp
leaves
of
baby
spinach,
arugula,
lettuce,
chard,
and
mizuna,
all
with
vegetal
sweet
bitter
herbal
flavour,
alongside
juicy
fresh
tomato
with
vegetal
sweet
notes.
A
refreshing
garden
salad.
.
The
Steak-Cut
Potato
Chips
are
large,
crisp
outside
and
fluffy
inside,
with
satisfying
starchy
salty
savoury
flavour.
Loved
their
steak-cut
potato
chips,
nicely
filling.
.
The
star
is
the
Beef
Steak
200g
Porterhouse
Cut.
This
porterhouse
cut
of
grain-fed
beef
steak
is
thick,
grilled
to
a
perfect
medium
rare
doneness,
with
a
slight
crisp
char
on
the
exterior,
and
tender
juicy
beef
meat
interior.
Carries
bold
smoky
meaty
savoury
salty
flavour.
.
Served
with
a
Traditional
Brown
Meat
Gravy
to
complete,
the
thick
gravy
lending
robust
meaty
salty
savoury
notes
that
enhance
the
dish.
Excellent
with
or
without
the
gravy.
