Prime at GPO, No 1 Martin Place

Prime is the carnivore's lolly shop. Here they pride themselves on their attention to detail and time--the meat here is hung to allow proper ageing, relaxation and more intense flavour.

We went with the rib eye which lived up to its reputation--moist, tender and meaty, it brought tears of joy to these haem-iron seekers. It is one of the only times a medium rare steak has arrived as requested.
