Cosy Corner in Wynberg is now my personal "meetstok" for a gatsby in CPT.

OMFG!

I'm at the office on Monday till 22:20 - had a craving for some junk food - didn't want MCD's of KFC.
Talked to mates at the office about options - Bona was closed, wasn't in the mood to drive via Golden Dish and then one oke mentions Cosy Corner and how they've been revamped and goes on about their menu and how he's been making his way through it.

He recommends the Chargrilled Rump Steak Gatsby - I salivate!

I go for the "Half Chargrilled Rump Steak Gatsby" @ R54.90.
Call in the order and drive down from Century City a few minutes later.

Get there and its piping hot and waiting for me.
Grab a 2 liter Stoney and make my way to the car.

Have a nibble in the car and had my fscking head blown off with the flavours.
THE SAUCE! EPIC!!!!!

I rush home, fall into the damned thing with my face - pure bliss!

Jeez - get yourself down there and try it out!
There were 3 well sized pieces of rump on that half gatsby - plenty of chips and sauce - greens, onions - I don't know what else.
But nothing is touching them as far as I'm concerned.

I'll be back making my way through the rest of their menu too

Can't recall if there was cheese - perhaps not - maybe on their full house or summing - didn't care - wasn't missing it

All I know is that it was huge and juicy.
I don't think the typical tenderised steak would hold up so well - it had height to it, unlike tenderised steak which is quite flat on other gatsbii I've had.

 

[I.am.Sam]

yeah tenderised is much thinner

but if its yeah nice thick pieces im tempted

damn im hungry now and is it big enough for 2 ?

I keeled over after chowing it - I pushed myself - so it should be good enough for 2

 

[I.am.Sam]

hahahha ..then im going to try it soon

 

[mercurial]

I've had gatsbies from Cosy Corner before but it was very bland and overpriced. Maybe they've changed since then.

 

[The_Ogre]

Pity its so far from me

That's next on my list

Must say Food Inn have been sorting me out of late, not the best in the world but certainly well priced and less efforts than missioning down to Mirriams.
