There’s an old-fashioned steak house just down the road from me. I had driven past it dozens of times, but had never gone there… until last night.
The inside did not disappoint – red upholstery, dark wood, dim light, lots of old people… I enjoyed the atmosphere a lot.
But I have to admit, I was not overwhelmed by the steak. I was just whelmed. It was good, but it did not knock my socks off.

Still, I’m glad I went. I have missed other opportunities to stop in new places before, and I regret that.
Your description of the inside of that steak place gave e my morning giggle – thanks for that. Sorry the steak was only whelming, though…
