We’re back home after a nearly 3 week trip to Malaysia for Chinese New Year. I was so nice to see family and friends again, and of course to eat all the wonderful foods we’ve been missing.

(If you’re a fan of our Facebook Fan Page, you would have seen some of the things we ate.)

Back when we had FoodGal Carolyn Jung and her husband MeatBoy over for dinner for our FoodBuzz 24, 24, 24 Cioppino Hot Pot meal, we discussed many topics, including the best steaks.

And he claims that the best steaks are found right here in downtown San Jose, at The Grill on the Alley.
