Did you know?

Filet mignon comes from the tenderloin, one of the least-worked muscles in the cow, making it exceptionally tender.
It’s often served rare or medium-rare to preserve its juiciness and tenderness.
Despite its leanness, filet mignon is flavorful due to marbling and proper cooking techniques.

Drawback
