Delicious Beef Ribs @ The Steakhouse, Westin Denarau, Fiji

On our last night, we wanted to stop by the Flying Fish for our dinner. Unfortunately, it was packed for the night. We decided to walk to the Westin Denarau to have dinner at Zing, which was also closed. We had dinner already at The Steakhouse but it seems like we were left with no other choice.

We quickly decided on what to order while waiting for our table. A salad, an appetizer and a main. We have good experiences with the way salads are presented and dressed, which are always fresh and without that too zingy dressing, but light, sweet and mellow. We fell in love with it. A fresh garden salad did not disappoint.
The next one, however, was disappointing. The salmon caviar and avocado sushi was a let down. Instead of meticulously rolled and cut pieces of sushi, they were huge huge chunks of sushi rice with nori. Inside were cucumber and avocado. The salmon caviar was salmon roe, around 4-5 pearls per piece of sushi.
The main arrived and we were shocked. The serving was huge for just one person. It's the braised beef ribs which was said to be their specialty. And needless to say, just from the picture, that it was delicious and so melt in your mouth. It came with a side of yummy, chunky mashed potatoes, just the way I like them. The ribs, on the other hand, was a sensation. The meat was unyielding and lovely, and the braised sauce was another story. Though served family style, the beef ribs proved to be a trip worth coming back for. We left the place too full but happy and warm because of the home-y food and great service.
