Summary: Restaurants use a clever trick to make their steaks seem better than the ones you cook at home, and it’s all in the plating. You can easily use the same trick at home and make your already great steak dinners even better. As Brittany Burke at The Kitchn explains, heating your plate before serving keeps that perfectly cooked medium-rare steak from turning cold after the first few bites. Your steak stays warm longer, which means it stays irresistibly delicious longer.
