The SRF American Wagyu Porterhouse includes both a savory New York strip and a tender filet mignon. The filet portion and overall weight is greater than our Wagyu T-bone. Average weight is 32 oz.

 Excellent, this could be the video for tonights "TV". Thank you for the link!

You're welcome, his entire channel is a delight for armchair travelers.
And frankly getting to see non-urban centric travels in Japan is a treat - so many ferries and trains, each one sporting the most wonderful vending machine dishes imaginable.
