Cook Your Own Steak at Leeno’s Bar and Restaurant in Funchal, Madeira

By Djridings @fivethingsnow

The most popular main course at this excellent restaurant in the Lido area of Funchal is ‘beef on the stone’. Your fillet steak comes raw on an incredibly hot marble slab. Served with a tasty jacket potato and three sauces you have the job of slicing and cooking your steak how you like it. The marble stays very very hot from beginning to end – just watch touching it with your hand. This novel approach leads to the best steak you will ever have. Don’t wear your best clothes in case the splattering and spluttering is too much.
