Yachtsman's Porterhouse Question

[LillsnJills]

Hi, all. Already looking at places for our next trip in March and I'm considering a dinner at Yachtsman for my birthday. Specifically we're interested in their 32 oz Porterhouse, but I'm curious - it states it comes with a "trio of steakhouse sides". Anyone know what those sides are? Is there a choice, or a set selection? Are the portions of the sides actually big enough to share? Any feedback would be appreciated!

Hi there, you can see our full review of the porterhouse here: https://www.disboards.com/threads/9...w-dr-link-10-16.3510990/page-16#post-56252480 but the trio of sides is creamed spinach, mushrooms, and caramelized onions. It is definitely enough to share (3 of us shared ours), but you cannot substitute as far as I know.

cartelized onions

Are they from Mexican drug lords?

Actually those sides sound really good. Creamed spinach can be delicious.

Thanks for the info and the excellent review! Sounds super tasty - might just have a winner !

So, is Porterhouse the same as Chateaubriand?

no, chateaubriand is a tenderloin cut cooked in a big piece and sliced.

porterhouse is on a T-bone, strip on one side, filet on the other.

Ah, OK. Thanks. I can make sense of it now!

There's not enough mushrooms on that plate to share with my six year old.

You can substitute within those three sides. My sister and I got all creamed spinach, since neither of us likes mushrooms or onions.
