2020 Steak & Frites Dinner
Tuesday March 24, 2020
Steak frites meaning "steak [and] fries" in French, is a very common and popular dish served in brasseries throughout Europe consisting of steak paired with French fries. It is considered by some to be the national dish of Belgium, which claims to be the place of its invention.
Regardless of it's history, on March 24th it belongs to the Australian Wine Society of Toronto.
