The Capital Grille, Washington, D.C.

We had a lovely lunch today at The Capital Grille, one of the better steakhouses in town, as a bribe from my friend Robert for accompanying him to some business at the nearby federal courthouse. It was delicious, as always.

Robert had a ribeye steak sandwich with caramelized onions and Havarti cheese on a grilled demi-baguette of French bread, accompanied by house cut and fried potato chips, plus a side order of French fries (he didn't read the top of the menu that said the sandwiches came with a choice of fries, chips, or slaw, so he ended up with double potatoes). I had a grilled sirloin steak salad and an iced tea, as I almost always get, and it was just enough, as expected.

While I was happy with iced tea, Robert decided to splurge on a great big Tanqueray martini, up, with a twist.
