The steak is juicy and perfectly cooked, the asparagus isn't too soft or too crunchy, and the potatoes are the perfect combination of crispy on the outside and creamy in the middle with just the right amount of salt and oil. It doesn't match the meal, but the sake is even pretty good. John drinks it carefully, the way he drinks all drinks these days, but he doesn't turn it away. They're supposed to be doing this properly, after all. ]
