Never heard of chips with tartare. We usually do bread or toast with lots of butter 😋

Also i did not know that eating tartare was a controversial topic, I guess that it is a problem in places where food safety is not that good, but it is not that different biologically than eating rare steaks, those ain't cooked either in the centre.

Most of the bacterial growth on a steak will be on the outside. As long as the outside is seared, the odds of food borne illness is very low as long as the meat is fairly fresh or has been aged properly.

My personal issue with tartar is that the meat is minced. Every surface is now a potential surface for bacteria to grow. The meat must be extremely fresh and the surfaces and knives used to prepare tartar must be very clean or contamination is a real risk.

Respectfully, bullshit.

First tartare is cut not minced, and usually eaten just after preparing it, there is no time for anything to multiply. When I prepare it at home it is in my stomach less than 30 minutes after cutting it. At that point you have the same risk as licking the knife I used to prepare it.

The issue is stuff already in the meat because the animal was sick, like salmonella, hepatitis etc. Same risk as rare steak.

People have their reasons for not wanting to eat it but my rule is, the better the restaurant the more I'm willing to eat things that require more care in their offering. This restaurant is one of the best in my city and I'm very happy I have the opportunity to eat here.
