Food 10 - David's Bistro

This week's adventure in my search for interesting restaurant food photos took me to David's Bistro, another leading London restaurant.  Not surprisingly, and always refreshing, is a menu comprising items rarely found at other restaurants.  It is David's special touch, no doubt.  I chose the Chimichurri* glazed flat iron steak with potato, shallot and roasted pepper salad, and crispy taro root*.  The term 'flat iron steak' gave me pause and pleasantly surprised when the adequate amount of sliced steak arrived.  The term 'salad', correctly described, grammatically, as a mixture of small pieces of food was also misleading, nevertheless delicious.  Accompanied by a glass of rich Shiraz red wine.
 * Chimichurri is a South American uncooked sauce used for grilled meat.  It is made of finely chopped parsley, minced garlic, olive oil, oregano, and red wine vinegar.  The dominant flavours are parsley and garlic.
 * Taro root is a tropical plant grown primarily for its edible corms.  It is believed to be one of the earliest cultivated plants, and very rich in vitamins, especially B₆ and E.  It failed as part of this meal, being placed in the sauce and, thus, tasteless ... and not crispy.  I would suggest the use of cooked taro leaves in future (May be toxic uncooked, but vey rich in nutrients).
