As part of its winter menu rollout, the California-based cafeteria concept Lemonade Restaurant, has introduced grass-fed rosemary garlic steak.
Designed as the perfect topper to Lemonade's house-made marketplace salads, bowls, and sandwiches, the new grass-fed rosemary garlic steak is big on protein and big on flavor. The flank steak is prepared via sous vide, which gives it a tender texture, while garlic and rosemary provide a burst of flavor. As Lemonade's Vice President of Culinary Chef Nate Weir explains, "100 percent grass-fed steak is an exciting addition to the line up of flavor-forward, sustainable protein choices our guests enjoy at Lemonade. By preparing the steak sous-vide, we're able to offer an amazingly tender steak that's consistently delicious."
