The best steaks are the ones that are seasoned, aged and cooked to complete perfection and are not always those that are the top-dollar ones in the best restaurants. Here is a list of the top 5 steaks and where to get them.

Number 5 is the 35 oz Bife de Costilla at the La Cabana in Buenos Aries, Argentina. After taking one bite of this spit seared prime rib steak that is served with their bold Syrah sauce you will understand why Argentineans are considered the most prolific of the meat eaters anywhere.

Number 4 – The rib eye, that is grain fed at the Ekki Bar and Grill located at the Four Seasons Hotel in Tokyo, Japan is seasoned and cooked to perfection and accompanied by the one of the finest selections of wines to be found in the world. The menu here is varied but simple, designed much like New York styled cuisine and the chefs use their culinary skills and the best ingredients to create Tokyo’s best entrees.

For Number 3 you need to visit BLT Prime in New York, NY and have their 16 oz New York strip loin. Naturally any place that has it dry aging room as the featured dining room showpiece is very serious about their beef. While not the most expensive item on the menu it is considered the best and they serve it with your choice of perfect sauces: Roquefort, three mustard or red wine, making a meal you will not forget.

Number 2 – For this you need to make the trip to London, England and visit the Gaucho Restaurant; as you descend their wrought iron stairs you will begin to salivate just from the aroma of the meat cooking on the open grill. The Churrasco de lomo is their signature dish and is a slim cut and exquisitely tender steak that they open and turn out before beginning to cook it allowing it to soak up the garlic and olive oil marinade.

And now for the Number 1 rated steak and location you need to head to Paris, France. Once there you will need to go to the Le Relais De Venise restaurant and order the steak frites. The menu is extremely limited (as in almost no other choices) and don’t even think about ordering it cooked any particular way as it is usually served rare but they may go for medium rare. You will start with a salad made from romaine lettuce with horseradish and walnuts, and then your beef will arrive already sliced with their own secret butter herb sauce along with their fabulous fries.

There you have it, just order your cut with a good sauce or marinade and you will have a steak that is fit for royalty.
