    Weird to hear tartare described as “adventurous” food lol.

    It’s pretty standard in Europe. Like my dad made it a couple of times at home for us.

      My American brain is a little surprised it’s cultural. Uncooked ground beef has a pretty unpleasant texture and smell on its own. I’m sure it’s better when it’s steak-burger, but not by much to me.

      Closest I’ve been able to do was seared A1 Wagyu steak. Which was great, but I still wouldn’t really want to eat much more than a few bites in a sitting.

        But you’re an adventurous eater?
        What do you eat/did try to call yourself that?

        Tartare is like really baseline of good kitchen, just like carpaccio

        Don’t want to sound like a dick, but would be really interested in what other foods you’re into, when you think, that’s too much exotic

        Edit: to sound even less like a dick:
        My wife hates the texture and taste of meat in general. So I’m kinda asking out of real interest, because maybe there something for her, I don’t know about

      I’ve had tartare in the suburb I live in here in Jersey, in Manhattan, in Montreal, France, Spain. I think it’s fairly standard everywhere, although in the US it’s probably limited to more upscale dining.

      That said, it’s not my jam. But I’ll probably keep trying it.
