Salty Sizzling Steak Marriott Midnight Meal - IMRAN™

            Salty Sizzling Steak Marriott Midnight Meal - IMRAN™
I had not been to Pittsburgh since last century. It was around the same time of year around 1997. Landing there this time on a late night flight meant I didn’t get to see much on the ride to the downtown Marriott there. I checked in just before the last call for the hotel’s restaurant.
I was exhausted from an all nighter because I had a flight cancellation from Tampa to New York around 4am. So I had to scamper to continue my meetings remotely. 
It was supposed to be a Tampa-New York early morning flight and a New York-Pittsburgh evening flight. But I had to get the last available flight after my meetings. And it was a Tampa-Pittsburgh flight with a change of planes in Atlanta. 
I hate connecting flights. With one hour connections you barely make it from one gate to the other, as happened on my outbound flight. On the return I ended up at Atlanta airport for four hours waiting for a delayed connection. It just adds unneeded drama or life-sucking time-wasting delays. 
In any case, I got to the Pittsburgh Marriott City Center. I had not even had time for a proper lunch. I avoid heavy meals late at night, especially near midnight when I have to up at 6 am for 7 am meetings. However, at the Marriott the menu choices were limited. But at least they had a place open. 
Since childhood I’ve been too much of a red-meat lover. So I ordered this filet mignon with crab cake, veggies, and mashed potatoes. 
Much that the meat and meal could be rated as great, and much that I’m grateful for every meal, fancy or otherwise, I’m blessed to have, I have to warn you — this steak must have been marinated in a salt mine! 
I could literally feel my blood pressure rising from the salt intake. 😄 But there was no time to ask for a change, so I imagined it was a chef special recipe that made it so salty. 😊 I’d definitely order this again but hope someone there pays attention to the salt thrown in the meal.
