That could be regarded as a first day glitch. I had ordered the 'Southwest Chipotle' cheese steak in chicken and while the bread was fresh, the meat filling wasn’t distributed properly as a result, there was just too much sauce and chicken on one end which kept falling out. There was a limited menu on offer for the launch - only the cheese steaks and the steak burgers along with fries and drinks. The order needs to be placed upstairs on one end of the kitchen where the cashier would first take the order and give a token to be placed on your table so that the waiters could bring the food there. Predictably so, the service was impeccable on the restaurant's first day with about two minutes being taken to place the order, and about five to 10 for the order to be delivered. There’s also a play area for the children so families can enjoy their meal in peace. It’s done up in shades of yellow and black again, with brick walls, adding a cosy warm element. The downstairs area is much more spacious, having space for around 60 people. Another unique selling point (USP) for this open kitchen is that it lets the diner design his own meal - choose the bread you want, add your preferred meat, only the veggies you can bear to eat, and then finish it with the spicy sauce of your choice.

Their open style industrial kitchen is their unique selling point. The upstairs was where all the action was taking place, not just with the red carpet and photography, but also with the sounds and movement of their open style industrial kitchen. The décor was done up in the signature yellow and black theme, with loads of balloons decorating every part of the outlet. The outlet's launch, arranged by the Hive Clan Marketing Agency and Raspberry Events, started off around 7:30pm with the invitees ranging from celebs, food bloggers, Twitterati to foodies invited from popular food fora giving everyone the chance to enjoy this new restaurant.

It’s the first outlet of many more (within Karachi and outside) of an international chain brought to the metropolis via the Lalani brothers of Lalani Group. Situated on main Badar commercial in Karachi's Defence Housing Authority (DHA), the outlet is hard to miss with its distinctive logo and the striking black and yellow lighting. Steak Escape has made its way to Pakistan all the way from Columbus, Ohio.
