Martin: Would you just pick your steak?
Niles: I'd like a petit fillet mignon very lean, but not so lean that it lacks flavor. But not so fatty that it leaves drippings on the plate. And I don't want it cooked, just lightly seared on either side. Pink in the middle. Not true pink, but not a mauve either. Something in between, bearing in mind the slightest error either way, and it's ruined.
Waitress: OK.
