A gourmet start to the week at Ruth’s Chris Steak House

We like Ruth’s Chris Steak House. We like that it’s dark, we like that it resembles a jazz club or gentleman’s retreat, and we like that they’ve just began their Gourmet Mondays with a suitably decadent truffle menu.

Dubai’s own ‘truffle man’ Massimo Vidoni is behind the three course menu and we can heartily recommend their wine pairing option. The tagliatelle al tartufo is a sublime starter. It’s rich and loaded with marinated Umbria black truffles. Follow with the USDA fillet of beef for a more subtle hint of truffle to avoid overload. Finally close on the chocolate fondant. It has no truffle in there whatsoever, but works well as a sweet antithesis to what has gone before.
