    I had fillet steak (or tenderloin for you Americans) for dinner tonight, with sweet potato fries and peppercorn sauce. I love steak. Fillet is definitely my favourite because I'm fussy about the fatty bits in any kind of meat.

    I tend to not care what kind of steak it is, just so long as it is boneless.

    He said: kogelbiefstukje - which translates to: bullet steak
    Wiki said: kogelbiefstuk - which translates to: round steak

    Looking at the wiki pictures - I think you might be right.

    Very confusing. [​IMG]

    The "je" behind a word is just a diminutive. So it kinda means a "little kogelbiefstuk". Often things aren't exactly translated, especially with food and animals and such. So "kogelbiefstuk" might very well translate to "round steak", when it literally translates to "bullet steak".

    I prefer filet mignon or a sirloin steak.

    It's the lagere ronde kogel dik flank steak. The 'dik' being 'thick' - do you like your steak thick?

    Lower round bullet fat flank steak? I interpret that as "fat, lower side of a cows' ass".
    Sounds about right.
    "Dik" means "fat" more than "thick", depending on how the word is used.

    That's about right.


    I was using it in a comical sense. Well, I found it funny.

    Trying to make sense of the Dutch words reminds me of Eurotrip.

    Never heard of Eurotrip? I cannot imagine the movies of which you have heard.

    Bird has hardly heard of anything, to be honest. But to be fair, I had not heard of it, either :D
