Description
The connection between the leader of the French Revolution, Maximilien Robespierre, and the beefsteak named after him is quite vague. However, in her book on Italian cuisine, a culinary expert boldly suggests that since Robespierre ended his life on the guillotine, having previously sent many of his friends and associates to the scaffold, associations with 'guillotined' thin slices of beef tenderloin in dark drops of balsamic vinegar definitely arise. Nevertheless, the only bloody aspect of this story remains the center of the not fully cooked beef tenderloin, while the dish is found in good steak restaurants across Tuscany and is valued on par with the renowned Florentine steak.

- Veal Tenderloin - 5.3 oz
