I had a new US dinning experience today. At my wife’s suggestion we split a meal. This is simply not done in the UK. With the portion size here, however, it is a very good idea. We ordered prime rib, which is the US name for thickly sliced roast beef. This alleged single portion was a main meal for two people. It came with a starter salad, which I nobly gave to my wife. OK, I am not a great fan of salads, particularly on a cold and wet winter night, so that adverb might be stretching the truth a bit.
