Here are some pics from my tasting dinner at Chianina Steakhouse in Long Beach. It’s the only restaurant in the country where you get enjoy Chianina beef, from special Chianina cattle. These giant cattle, up to seven feet tall and weighing almost two tons, have been bred in Tuscany for thousands of years as working farm animals. The meat is tender, flavorful and low in fat. You can read my full review on Examiner later today.






Chianina Steakhouse is at 5716 2nd Street in the Naples area of Long Beach. They do tasting dinners each week. In addition to the great food, they have an extensive menu of Italian cuisine and a large bar serving specially crafted cocktails and wine from the restaurant’s extensive wine list. Chianina is also known for its wine tastings and foodie events.
