- This week we visit Rubicon Steakhouse to try some beef from Hokkaido.
Having no rating or species rated, I was quite reserved coming into today's episode. But, boy was I surprised.
The high degree of marbling combined with the generous cut really made for a more than luxurious experience. Unfortunately, there were some apparent misses.

I’m glad you gave them 3 steaks because you just cannot find any other steak that can beat them for quality and taste for the price. I’ve been to Cut by Wolfgang and while they have amazing steaks, there is something about this hole in a wall restaurant that serves mind blowing steak that is a MUST TRY BEFORE DEATH. 😂
Congrats on the sponsor and the shout out by the waiter... Channel Alderic is on the way up up up💪💪💪
alderic, i have to say you are very professional and you really put in so much effort to script and direct and edit your videos. keep up the good work my man
thank you! I really appreciate that.
I thought you were in Korea!! wasnt expecting a video this week, but well enjoyed it! the steak looked sooooooo good, but unfortunately i'm too broke to try, will have to save up to try it once!
was a very wholesome video thoroughly enjoyed it mr alderic 👍
When it comes to Japanese beef, the sirloin will always be substantially more expensive than the ribeye, because the ribeye is considered too fatty (contains too much unnecessary fat).
By the way, this place uses F1 beef, which can be almost as marbled as an A5 wagyu sometimes, depending on the cow.
Nice to see a bro doing some good wholesome content. Keep it up!!
Enjoying this series, keep it up! Maybe the smaller store & short opening hours help to keep operating cost manageable, so they can serve quality steaks at this price point? Congrats on the Ergotune chair sponsor!!
thank you! I thought about that but the main cost is rental and there is no discount on that. but anyway, I cannot really comment when I don't have their business data.
Came here just a day ago after watching this. Got 1 sirloin and 1 ribeye, ordered both medium rare. Sirloin was cooked perfectly, but ribeye a few parts were rare instead of medium rare. I personally dont mind rare but wasn't expecting the steak to be unevenly cooked, but the fat was still rendered nicely so it was very delicious. The crust on both were incredible and looked even better than in this video though, and the steaks weren't overly salted which was a good thing. The uneven cook aside, this was definitely one of the best steaks I tried.
We got a sponsor woohoo 🎉 really shows how long you’ve came, keep going!❤
Great find, will definitely visit Rubicon when I go to SG. Don't forget to try Angus house alderic
I love your videos Alderic !! Hope you are having a super fun time in Korea :) Can't wait for more Korea content !!
thank you! I had a blast in Korea, might go back later this year for a proper content trip.
Thanks for the recommendation! Gonna try it next week!
Absolutely love your steak videos bro please keep it up
thanks, I will!
Can you review Angus House at Ngee Ann City next? I went there once a few years ago and it was really nice but a bit pricey. Would love your opinions on it!
Wait... 1) sponsor, 2) waiter recognition?
2 hits 0 misses yaboi on the up!
rare Alderic W
watching you devour those $300 steaks is really a feast for the eyes but these mid tier steaks are a good break financially, which is good for us so you can continue this series 🤣
Really enjoying your content, production value going up as well. Would love to hear your review on Bochinche Argentinian steakhouse.
glad you're enjoying it! yes I love my new DJI mic. the restaurant was actually really noisy, made me very worried about my audio. I'm amazed at how well it did.
I’m glad u like it. Can I take (some) credit for the rec? Haha 😂
Anyhow, I prefer the sirloin to the ribeye. It’s less fatty. Didn’t notice the salt when I was last there. And yes, the place has no ambience but it’s soooo yummy!
yes you may hahaha.
salting a steak is tricky I guess. different people have different tolerance for salt. probably a one-off.
Sirloin is alwaysy favorite cut cos of the fat layer on the top which always beats ribeyes imo
Glad to see this restaurant is only one that will charge me more for choosing sirloin, must be super yummy, can't wait to try it
This is not just the best steak in Singapore, it is the best steak I have ever eaten in my damn life
Everyone please support their restaurant!!!
They could do with more variety of sides and desserts but otherwise it's still my favorite steakhouse in sg. I like dipping the roasted garlic into the steak sauce and smooshing it onto the steak and eating that in 1 bite. Try it some time.
oof sounds like a great idea.
That looks really good
like your humor on the whisky. perhape you can do a video on different type of wine with steak.
I would love to but I would have to properly study a sommelier course before talking about it.
i am probably going to treat my dad to the eventual winner of this series. looking forward to the conclusion!
Bizen (Plaza Sing) Delmonico and Chuck Short Rib in my opinion beats Rubicon for 1/3 the price. And this was tested back to back on 2 days by myself.
have to try already brother. mysterious grading Japanese wagyu with almost wolfgang-like crust? say less!
Congrats., steak looks good!
sheeeeesh that first bite
Hi, i'm looking for good steaks and a fancy restaurant in Singapore for my Birthday. I've been to Keef The Beef and Bisteca to name a few. I was planning to make a reservation at Wolfgang, do you think it's a good choice?
Wolfgang is definitely a solid choice, I would throw CUT in there as well. Although, these 2 are slightly pricier and you might not find them better than Bistecca.
happy birthday in advance!
Sponsor!!!!
ERGOTUNE THIS WAS A GREAT CALL. all you other sponsors pls drop Alderic an email plssss
can you try lawrys the prime rib steak
Are you going to review Ruth Chris or Lawry's?
A4 steak for prime grade cost is unbeatable value
let's get it boys XD
Went to eat 1kg ribeye few days ago. Steak crust was good but it's not so nice as you described. Took us quite some time to chew it. It was juicy but the juice has no taste at all.
Some parts was just fats all the way.
So I don't know if it's one off or just my taste bud is different m
You're not alone. went there twice. once for sirloin once for ribeye. The ribeye had a lot of fats (that wasn't even rendered). Out of 500g, i would say about 200g worth of fats
For fattier steak is it better to go medium?
I think medium rare might be safer. you don't want too much of that fat to render down and be left on the pan.
you are funny, I enjoyed it
The lean is super good btw. You get all the beefy flavours without the fat.
I suspected as much! can you tell what cut is it? it's not minced meat is it?
@@Alderic. it's not minced definitely
If you like japan beef. You should try kobe beef best beef in the world..
Hidden gem uncovered. #ohno hope Jonathan from Rubicon don’t raise his pricing after this 😅
sure hope not! or at least get a bigger place before they do raise the price.
First full vid sponsor? 🤑
💜👍💜👍
How much is the 500 grams steak?
S$132
Serene Center one.
Please do Aston’s
It would be good to see how a budget or wallet friendly steak compares
For fun, do saizeriya as well
I did Bizen! which is owned by Astons I believe. for budget steaks, you can take a look at the iSTEAKS episode too!
Alderic I love this series you did on Steakhouses. I tried Rubicon. Not so nice leh. Ordered a 500g Ribeye. Really disappointed
thank you! oh what did you not like about it? you're the first one I have heard to be really disappointed with Rubicon haha
Love yr vids. If they recognized you they prob gave you a better cut tho
glad you do! I'd be really disappointed if they did that, means that they don't believe that what they do regularly is good enough.
No promo code is ok, but how can we let the brand know we got to know of their chairs because of your video? Hahaha it so happens that i’m looking for a desk chair
maybe they'll see this comment. the guy that approached me for the sponsorship is a viewer!
Would you recommend this steak for people who dont really like steak? Also, please do food content in korea!!
it would still be a tough sell but I think the fattiness of a steak is easier for someone who doesn't like steak. as compared to the lean, "bloody" flavor.
I should be going back to Korea for a proper content trip later this year!
@@Alderic. oh hmmm... Im looking forward to korea food content
This is Japan concept restaurant. Small n tiny.
I would appreciate it if I was in for a quick ramen or donburi but not for an expensive steak dinner.
I think no one has as much passion for steak as you other than Guga LOL
Visited Rubicon recently and this has to be the closest to what a Guga Steak tastes like, insanely value and premium fattyness.
Small very personal suggestion, i think you can try out teeth whitening. Would just look a bit better on camera, cost around $200. A pretty good investment as a food presenter
funny you should mention this, I'm starting my treatment tomorrow. hopefully it works out.
@@Alderic. eh solid la, looking forward to it, if dont work just throw on some filters 😂
if the steak was so salty, why did you resend it back to the kitchen? tell them that and recook a new steak
it's just not something that I do unless it's inedible or not food-safe. also, for the integrity of the review, I'm taking the first piece. no do-overs.
I disagree with the heavy salting, it felt just right for me
might have just been my piece then.
Is this wagyu?..
yup, at least it writes that it is on the counter 2:22
wah brudda first bite so BIG meh
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
First
dude feed me some steak
Its like the old trend hokkaido french toast like wtf is that
Such an oxymoron
Thats why i enjoy grilling pure beef fats and having it in the kitchen. Just $4/kg for good quality grass fed beef fats. Not everyone understands 😅
Their sirloin is likely more expensive because it comes from the supplier with huge fat caps. And they trim off huge chunks of fats from the sirloin before they are able to serve it.
Plus how many people would really even know that the Ribeye is actually Ribeye when the whole piece of beef is so marbled? They could replace the ribeye with chuck eye steak and nobody would know ESPECIALLY when they slice the steak into strips before serving. Its a good way to earn $ 😊
And if you would care to notice them selling "Lean" steak. I can only guess thats the way to sell the other parts of the chuck roll that doesn't pass the appearance test of a Ribeye.
As long as customer is happy with it after eating, who really care about ethics right? 😂
good points! with how fatty their cuts are, I'm actually very curious how lean are their lean cuts. it might be a real value buy.
I swear I saw uncle Roger in the back lmao
02:56
@@Alderic. OMG YES 😭😭
Although the contents are OK, there are way too many swearing in his vocabulary!
Has anyone told you that you look like Disguised Toast?
What's a disguised toast?
They don’t look alike
Lmao now that you mentioned it, there is some resemblance
no shot, not capo toast.
Why you no wipe your mouth, it's distracting 😂😂
you know, I really try my best but I keep missing it. and the camera screen is too small for me to notice. I'll do better.
stop using my Lord's name in vain
Oh my god. Jesus. You're so sensitive god damn it.
