Well a great review as always . I'm catching up as I'm a newcomer . That is not what I would call a glass of wine !! I love a bit of the green stuff , makes me feel " healthy " . Personally I prefer rump , for the flavour . As always , a balanced review 😊.

Thank you 😋 I would say the portion size was not too bad given the quality was excellent! Thank you again.

[@christinehodge3608]

First look at the meal,just amazing

[@TKM11370]

I think we need to really look at portion size as that is easily enough to fill any person, and fill them well. If you're not working on a field or a out doors doing something very exerting, you don't need 1800cal meals.

The restaurant looks just like my father's hunting lodge. He used to be an avid hunter. The restaurant's food is excellent, as my father occasionally goes there on his cook's days off. I agree the service and meal are both 10/10. I'm glad you are enjoying yourself in York and also, congratulations on reaching 5000.

[@GaryEats]

Thank you. The restaurant has a real rustic feel and it's truly beautiful. Thanks for watching!

Mr Gary, this is a crucial time for you to keep uploading videos regularly. From what I can see you have got over 200 new subscribers in practically 1/2 days. I believe KZbin is starting to pick up and push your algorithm which is a great sign! Take a break later if you wish, but it's very important to keep uploading while your channel is popping! All the best.👍👍👍💫

[@GaryEats]

That's the plan my friend. I will upload as much as I possibly can but I also have to work! Really appreciate your comments tonight - they've made my evening. Thank you.

[@Philo68]

I went here today Gary, with a couple of fussy eaters. The posh fish finger sandwich, the fish and chips and the steak that we had were a complete triumph! These guys are hard to please but they were RAVING about the food, the decor, the general vibe and the excellent service. What a great lunch - thanks for the steer and the review. This place is gold!

[@GaryEats]

That is absolutely wonderful to hear thank you so very much for letting me know

[@asadzeethree2726]

I'm here enjoying Mr Gary's videos, while he's still climbing up the ladder of fame! Once he gets popular and recognition for who he is, people will start interrupting the reviews! However, I do believe it won't be as bad as Rate My Takeaway because Danny is out on the street and Gary is nicely tucked away inside the restaurants! Your videos are not just about reviewing food, but there's something relaxing about watching them too! Your editing is perfect from the shots of the meal, to the music 🎶. Last but not least, your reviews are not too short or too long, and not too much talking. Perfect!👍💯💫✨

[@GaryEats]

Wow. I've read that entire message and that's so incredibly kind of you and one of the nicest comments that I've read. Most of all, I'm glad you're enjoying my videos and bringing some positivity to what you're doing! Thank you so much and have a great week!

Thanks so much. I'm really appreciative of your kind words :)

[@karenward267]

Having just watched your review of the York Roastery, the food at Forest was how it should be done. The steak was cooked to perfection, always telling if a chef can cook beef/steak to a medium rare or rare. The chips were great, although I winced that the steak was placed on on top of some of them so those were soggy. However, the chips that remained were cooked well-crunchy outside and soft inside. The crunch on the onion rings was outstanding. The vine grown tomatoes were a nice touch. I would gladly pay extra for the peppercorn gravy. Everything looked homemade, and cooked by a good chef and lime staff who know how to cook.Well deserving of the perfect score.

[@GaryEats]

This was outstanding Karen and I like the way they support local businesses as well top drawer 💯👌

[@KyleJamesFrazer]

Still making my way through your videos - this is one of my wife and I’s favourite in York, really good food and ambiance.

[@GaryEats]

This was a wonderful restaurant

[@conormacdougal2344]

Watching this early video shows how much you have developed your technique and become much more comfortable being filmed. What a delight to see this small independent business offering such fine fare. Your plate did look amazing, especially the well cooked steak, The accompaniments were given the same care in cooking and presentation. And of course Gary you really show the best out of a place. Even a year ago this was excellent prices. When it comes to choice of steak, I do like all varieties of beef steak served medium rare, but my favourite has to be well done Pork Shoulder steak. It is juicy with well charred fat when cooked well.

[@GaryEats]

Thank you very much Conor. I've become a lot more confident!

[@bainies3272]

Will definitely be giving them a try the next time we are in York, looks great!

Gary the food looked fabulous as soon as the plate arrived, definatly a solid 10.

[@GaryEats]

Agreed!

[@darren_anscombe]

I've caught up with all the recent videos and YT decided to put this one forward instead. I must say, it hasn't really changed much and that is testament to the integrity since then. Honest reviews, nice editing, cameraman son gets a well done. The work definitely has put a few pounds on you since so perhaps just a nibble and pass on.... All in all, still a great watch. Well done, Gary and son. I'll be visiting here next time I'm up north.

[@GaryEats]

That’s very kind to say thank you very much. I really appreciate you watching all the videos. I’m definitely putting a bit of timber on so I’ll have to be be careful. This is one restaurant. I highly recommend.

[@carlheald9228]

After watching this we went and tried Forest at a lunchtime for ourselves. It was a lovely place and the food was fantastic. So good after a day exploring and visiting the Christmas Market we went back in the evening for a drink and something a little lighter as the meal at lunchtime had filled us up. Cannot recommend this place enough. Absolute gem.

[@GaryEats]

That is truly wonderful to hear thank you very much for supporting a local business not once but twice

[@DrFrankLondon]

That looked like a really nice meal, Gary. A really rumpsteak can be difficult to get right, but they got it spot on. The chips looked perfect and the same goes for the rest of the plate. Made me hungry, mate! I prefer a filet steak or a sirloin steak, cooked rare. Another fantastic review, mate! Have a wonderful rest of your stay in Yorkshire. Next time we go up, we will definitely try Forest, great that it's a family owned business and sources locally. Spot on, mate! Again, a fantastic review! 😀❤️

[@GaryEats]

Completely agree with you. I'm always a bit apprehensive about getting a rump steak as it can be particularly tough but it was excellent. Glad you liked the look of it. I do love a filet and sirloin too and completely agree with the way you have it cooked. Please give it a try, you will not regret it. See you on Wednesday! Thank you as always.

[@ChrisTurner-t5n]

That plate of food looked absolutely stunning Gary. My favourite cut is fillet and well done.

One of the best things in a person’s life is eating a lovely meal with a good glass of wine in fine surroundings and not having to pay an awful lot of money for the privilege. And, judging by your experience in the Forest restaurant in York that place seems to have it all and rightly deserves a 10 score. Now it will have to go on my list of restaurants/pubs to visit in York, thanks to you. Loving the channel. Can’t wait to see where you decide to dine out in Newcastle.

That looks like an excellent plate of food, not too bad a price. I love steak and am more or less happy with any cut, as long as it’s cooked well. I have steak either medium rare or medium. I used to have it well done, but it lacked flavour. Fabulous video Gary

Gary as an ex chef my favourite cut is Ribeye cooked medium rare with either peppercorn sauce or bernaise sauce.

[@GaryEats]

Lovely stuff Palace. Would be my go-to as well. Maybe with beef dripping gravy or peppercorn!

[@JimCarner777]

*béarnaise sauce I love ribeye steak too, but it's not as common in restaurants in the UK as rump steak (which I also love).

[@sandram44]

My favourite meal is steak au poivre with the steak cooked rare. I live in a bilingual area thus the half English, half French we use. That was a beautiful plate of food and deserved your rating. Thanks for sharing, Gary.

[@GaryEats]

Was a lovely restaurant with lovely staff and lovely food. The perfect combination!

[@DuderinoDeux]

Rump steak cooked differently? Guess it's down to the quality of the meat

[@geordiejones2]

Wow Gary you found an absolute Jem here you really did, i had to reply the clip when you cut into the Rump as i could not believe it was Rump !! a very good cut and supplier. You asked what cuts we like and i must admit im a fillet man, yes i know Rib Eye etc has better flavour, but at 57 the more tender the meat the better for me, also these great sources like this one you had with brandy, really add to the dish. Chris.

[@GaryEats]

I couldn't believe it either. It was a fillet with the flavour of a rump. I also love a fillet as well - completely agree with you Chris. Have you had beef dripping gravy before? Brilliant. Thanks mate.

[@geordiejones2]

@@GaryEatsHi Gary yes i love Beef dripping Gravy, after watching your Miller and Carter Steakhouse vlog. I made my own after finding a recipe off the web, but i noticed Tesco have it for sale now. INGREDIENTS 50 g beef dripping 2 shallots 3 garlic cloves ½ star anise 100 g fatty stewing steak like skirt, flank, chuck etc 80 g red wine 20 g port 500 g beef stock ½ teaspoon sugar red wine vinegar ¼ teaspoon xanthan gum see notes INSTRUCTIONS Get a wide sauce pan over a medium heat. Peel and finely dice the shallots. Peel and mince the garlic. Slice the beef into thin slices. Add about a third of the beef dripping to the pan and once melted, add the shallots, garlic, star anise and beef and stir fry for 4 - 6 minutes. Cook until the beef has started to brown and everything smells great. Turn the heat up. Discard the star anise. Add the red wine and port and move everything around to get the great crusty bits off the bottom of the pan. Once the wine has bubbled away to about a third of it's volume, add in the beef stock and remaining beef dripping. Bring to a furious boil. Let this all simmer away until it's about half of what you started with. This will take 20 - 30 minutes. Strain off all the solids (see note) and return the sauce to the pan. Turn the heat down low and adjust seasoning: it might need salt, pepper and a pinch of sugar, and add a couple of drops (I do mean a couple of drops) of red wine vinegar to taste to help balance the richness. Once the flavour is right, whisk in the xanthan gum. You can serve immediately, or it refrigerates or freezes well. Chris.

[@GaryEats]

Wow, great stuff Chris. Sounds like I need to get my chef's head on and cook some myself. Thanks for the ingredients and tips!

[@ianwestbrook2763]

[@mickandtraceycope7826]

Do you remember the name of the Australian Shiraz? I would pay that but I would have the mushroom. I like sirloin steak medium.

[@brianjonas4654]

Another great review. Never had a rump streak, going to purchase a small rump roast and prepare as a steak. Most deserving of a perfect 10 rating. Blessings from Texas,USA. Oh, medium rare is the only way a streak should be prepared in my opinion. Out here a porterhouse is quite popular. 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@KarenAllison-b2i]

Gosh that looked absolutely delicious ! Steak perfectly cooked, which doesn’t happen often. I must admit to liking a bit of fat on the edge of the steak but not everybody’s cup of tea. I like mushrooms but not a fan of onion rings, so I’d ditch them and and I’d be cheeky and ask if there was any chance of a fried egg, as a steak and egg combo is delicious. I agree with you about supporting local businesses, particularly in these difficult times when so many businesses are struggling. Another great review, I look forward to the next one

That was really good value for your buck, I normally have sirloin cooked on my iron skillet with butter, rosemary, thyme, salt, pepper and a smidge of garlic. I prefer a good marbling of fat and cooked medium rare to rare, if I’m ever in York I will definitely look up Forest as your rump steak look divine and so juicy.

Hi. Been in Forest for tea tonight. What a place the food is cracking. There was another couple eating who had seen the Vlog. Happy days. If you ever get around our way Tavola is amazing food along with the Packhorse at Hayfield and the Lamb not far away.

i'm going on sunday and thats exactly what i'm having,thanks for putting me in the mood,keep up the good work Gary,its a hard job but someone has to do it

[@GaryEats]

Haha, I love it. Enjoy !

Looked v nice indeed. I like the look of the menu. It is good to see them being brave enough to only offer one steak option and that being a rump - they are clearly very confident with that choice and it looks like they are right to be! I would always go for the Ribeye (Medium Rare) if it was on the menu and would usually avoid rump because, as you say, can be tough - but that looked spot on. Thanks Gary - great review!

[@GaryEats]

It was excellent!

Great Yorkshire presentation.... me... well cooked!! Ps I'm Yorkshire kid too!!!!

[@GaryEats]

Superb mate. Love Yorkshire 👍🏼

[@alisonhorton2180]

You don’t mess about you give great feedback on food .. well done

[@GaryEats]

Thank you very much Alison!

[@djstuc]

For me, it depends on the cut as to how its cooked, favourite is Tomahawk done how they do it in Northern Spain, and I ask them to just cook it and serve how its meant to be. Great channel Gary. Next time you're in York, try the Duke of York, Judges Lodgings or Stonegate Yard for great food.

[@GaryEats]

Thanks so much and will do 👍🏼

I lived in York the last 8 years and the two best restaurants are Little Italy and Rustique. Would love to see you in those. And to answer your question about steaks, I like MR and had one of the best MR cuts of venison I’ve ever had in my life at Rustique.

[@robertleach9120]

Oh my goodness Gary that meal looked absolutely fabulous !! I prefer my steak well done or medium-well at a pinch and I'm sure they would do that justice too. Home made chips and a lovely peppercorn sauce really added to the meal as did the vine tomatoes. I only wish we had discovered this restaurant when we were in York a couple of months ago. You certainly did save the best 'til last !

[@GaryEats]

Hope you enjoyed it Robert. If you're ever in York again, please go and give it a go. You won't regret it. Thanks mate!
