Shulas Gift Cert! WOOT! What should we try!

Lizzy, Lucky you!! Shula's is my favorite restaurant in the world. You will love it.The attention to detail is great, before ordering the waiter will bring a cart to your table, on it will be all the cuts of meat that they serve and he will explain each steak or other cut of meat to you and answer any questions you may have. It is 1st class all the way. The last time we went the wife and I both had the French Onion soup, Excellent. We then had the Filet, which by itself will just about kill that gift certificate at around $44.00 but in my estimation WELL WORTH IT, 12 oz. of beef that you can cut with a fork with not a trace nor sign of any fat or gristle. we also each had a Baked Potato and topped it off with desert consisting of a Molten Chocolate Lava cake for DW and a creme Brulee for myself. The only drawback to the place is bring money it is very pricey, not a place to visit frequenly but definitely worth a visit. and for us we go every trip.
If I remember correctly one of our regulars here has his name engraved on the "hall of Fame" for eating one of their 44oz. (or larger) steaks which is quite an accomplishment, but I forget who it is.

Is that a restaurant at Disney? Sounds like an award my husband could get for a 44 ounce steak

Yes it is, it is situated in the Dolphin Hotel and of course is owned by Don Shula the former coach of the Miami Dolphins, thus the great tie in with the Dolphin Hotel. An interesting side note is that they give you a football (not to keep) on which the menu is printed they also give you a regular printed menu.

Im afraid to know how much that steak would be.... but id SOOOOOOOOOOO try it. Ive done 24 before.... would need a couple days of nothing to do after it though. Could put me in the room for a while... lol

Actually I was off by a small amount in my weight estimate, it is really a 48 oz.Porterhouse (try double what you have done) and it is listed at $85.00 on the menu, and that is ala cart of course. As is you could eat anything else with it

So if its 48... then the bone could be close to one third or one fourth the weight. If they are counting it which most places do... so we could be talking anywhere to an actual 36-40 ounces of meat.... hmmmmmmmmmmm...............

In the words of Phineas... I know what im doing at Disney!

Mase I checked the past threads reference to my earlier post of one of our posters and the 48 oz. Porterhouse and if you check in the Dining threadWAY back to Yachtsman Steakhouse Vs LeCellier Vs Shula's Steaknouse on 1-17-09 and check the second post. It's LeCellierBuff63 (AKA Jim) telling us his experience.
I really wish I knew how to link to that thread but no go, maybe the only way is to bump that thread to the front.

Here you go VL
