Today, we're going to a French restaurant called Le Relais De Venise which only serves steak and chips with the option of their incredibly secret sauce. Does anybody know the recipe? It's incredibly good.
Please don't forget to like and subscribe to the channel!
Where would you recommend us for to go for a steak?

The "secret sauce" is pretty much out of the bag, at this point. It's anchovies, mustard, and butter with lashings of tarragon (as well as some sage). You can find details online if you look hard enough. As for the "done-ness" of the steak, I believe they use an automatic broiler that is set to a specific time, so depending how you order your steak, they will feed it with a different thickness of cut. You asked for "rare" so you got a very thick cut. If you asked for a more well done steak you'd get a thinner cut.

I've been watching all youtube videos and have that recipe you're talking about (Dominique Dupagne) as my base. So far from the Wall Street Journal video, I see their sauce, when solidified is bouncy and jiggles. That's exactly like a cold hollandaise characteristic, so I'm inclined to believe it's like a broken hollandaise thats whisked back together. Even though Dominique says there's no eggs in his comment section, I think there is.

We've done everything from casual lunches with friends, to formal business meetings to romantic dinners. In fact it's the only place in London where we would ever, ever queue up. We love it there, so on that basis, it was really interesting to see your review when we know the food and staff so well. I think you were spot on and the comments here are very interesting too.

I went to the same restaurant in Bordeaux about 10 years ago. My friends and I still talk about the sauce and fries to this day! We absolutely loved the service, too. They weren't racist to group of Asian girls and kept giving us fries and checking up on us if we needed anything more. Could sound normal but among my experience back then during our month long trip around Europe, it's pretty much the few places that weren't asses or racist or both-which really was most of Paris' restaurants. I can't say it was the most amazing food in you could get around there but I do highly recommend going because it's simple but really tasteful and worth trying.

There are different brands that have this concept in france, the idea is that by purchasing/stocking only for one dish, there is no loss and allows purcasing higher volums, hence cheaper. The whole idea is that the single item menu allows you to eat a decent steak-frites for cheap. 30£ is very expensive, this kind of place in france would be 20€ tops, except Paris (which to be fair, is barely France anymore, most of the hyper-globalized eye-gouging expensive european capitals have more in common with one another than with their respective countries at this point)

Another good review of a lovely meal. The French connection reminds me of the 1967 foot and mouth outbreak when our meat was banned by the French. Prior to the outbreak our farmers sent their best beef to France. We seemed to survive on shin beef and brisket. We could only dream of an entrecote steak and dare I say it a chateaubriand.

The way they cook the steak is not strange at all. Its just the 4 classic ways you can order steak in France : Its Bleu, Saigant, A point and Bien cuit (Blue, rare, medium, well done). These are simply the traditional and long estabished ways how to prepare the steak meat in French cuisine. About the secret sauce: Ive read somewhere that they add a bit of chicken liver to really create that deep and savory flavour. Its just one of those ingredients that many people dont like by itself, like anchovis, but when you add just a bit to a sauce, it suddenly becomes amazing.

I live a few minutes away from the original one in Paris and, over the years, it has become a cherished memory with my daughter that I've been taking there every odd Sundays for almost 30 years now. She's almost vegeratian now but she would never say no to a lunch there because it's not just about great meat, it's about her childhood and the happy moments. She'll eat salad one week before and one week after but she won't say no to the Relais de Venise. That place never disappoints because it's always the same. Like the great Talking Head song, Heaven :) As a result, if you don't count the tourists, it's a family restaurant at heart. Lots of single dads taking their kids there on weekends and also a lot of old and sometimes very old couples that probably took their kids there decades ago and still enjoy that time travel experience of having exactly the same delicious and regressive food than when they were younger. If you come to Paris, you got to try that but don't just look at your plate: look around you (which is not easy in such a small and overpacked restaurant) and realize that this place is not selling beef and fries: it's selling timeless happiness !

I commented on your Hawksmoor review the other day We are off to see Cannons (LA based US pop trio) in March and I decided to go back thru your London reviews and there is no guess to where we will be eating the day after the concert after watching this review lol. Great stuff Gary much appreciated ❤

I assume you can't have the Anglosphere 'medium-rare' because the restaurant follows the French cooking time categories of bleu, saignant, à point and bien cuit - Although, the French 'saignant' (literally 'bloody') is actually what Americans and English call 'medium rare' - as both are defined as having an internal temperature of +/- 54c-56c. Based on the highly scientific definition of my father's preference, what English people actually call medium rare (which is normally cooked leaving only a 'sandwich' of red in the middle of the steak') is what the French call à point.

I am in Canada and I can tell you that when I order a steak in Ontario, I order it different then when in Quebec. In Ontario I asked for a medium rare to get what I want. In Quebec if I ordered that I would get a piece of steak still mooing. Their measure of level of being cooked, is a notch lower then elsewhere. So I order a medium steak in Quebec. One thing I dislike of ordering steaks in Quebec is they love their peppercorn steaks. In most small restaurants you can get a peppercorn steak but you have to scrap off the peppercorns, if you rather it without. What is nice is that plates for hot food is warm and plates for cold food like salads are nice and chilled. A salad tastes so much better served on a chilled plate.

Places like this are brave! When they are only offering a single food item, there is no room for error because their whole business depends on it. I think 9/10 was generous considering there was no "medium rare" option but there was either "medium" or "rare", that struck me as a bit weird. Also I could see the grease on the fries from here, never mind up close where you were.

When it's the only thing you cook, you only have one thing to focus on. If you go to South east Asia. The menu is only 5 to 8 items and the quality control from the kitchen is very very good. It should be the same for this, also buying fries oil and beef. They have a lot of buying power to get a good deal on beef.

I went to the original one in Paris a couple of months ago - it was incredible. Slightly cheaper than the London branch, not sure about the difference in taste between the two but I’m sure they’re going to be similar. The sauce in the Paris restaurant looked slightly lighter in colour and thicker in consistency so would be interesting to know if there’s a difference between the two, and it did look like the portion of the steak(s) were slightly bigger in the London one. I for one loved the fries (again I don’t know the difference between the two locations but they’re definitely the more traditional French fries)

You're so right Tee. I live in Manhattan really have to search for a burger that you can order medium-rare. They all seem to serve them medium-well to well-done. I'm not eating that. There is actually a high-end bodega in my building that has great burgers. I order it rare so it will come medium-rare. And it's only $5.99 with lettuce and tomato.

@@hoppysport2872 It's actually dangerous to eat under cooked burgers. You can have a steak very rare because nearly all bugs are on the outside and are killed off when the surface of the steak is cooked. With a burger consisting of minced meat the bugs are distributed throughout the burger. Unless all the meat reaches a sufficiently high temperature you could get severe food poisoning.

@@stevebarlow3154 Steve...I'll order a rare burger because it always ends up medium-rare. You are spot-on about the dangers of rare burgers. The problem that I have with smashburgers is that they are hardly ever juicy...mostly dry and overcooked. I have an excellent Deli located in my condo building. Their food is good and their 7 oz cheeseburger with Lettuce and Tomato is only $6.00. That's a great deal in Manhattan. When I order rare it usually comes in either medium-rare or medium.

Spot on, Gary…I totally agree with your summary of this place. It is excellent and it’s a pity that you can’t book so have to really get there early to get in. They used to offer you more if you wanted it, but then they said it applied to the fries and salad and not the meat and I’m wondering if they have stopped it completely now? That said, the portions are pretty generous so you’re never going to leave hungry. Not mega cheap as you say but worth it given the quality. It’s just a pity you have to be there by 12 noon to avoid queuing

Le Relais de Venise is an interesting one. The chain (or chains} stems from the original called just "Entrecote" in France, where you'll find them in Paris, Toulouse, Bordeaux, Lyon and maybe a couple of other places. Certainly in Toulouse, Entrecote opens at 12:30pm and you'll get a queue of up to 60 people before they even open the doors. The wait is certainly worth it. Both chains Entrecote & Relais de Venise are owned by the sons & daughters of the guy who opened the first place in Paris and they serve the steak in exactly the same fashion. I've only been to one Relais de Venise in the UK and that was the one in Soho, London that has since closed unfortunately. They also have a place just off the Marylebone Road. TOTALLY recommended in my book. Glad you had a good experience Gary.
