This is what Wikipedia says about the New York Striploin Steak - "Delmonico's Restaurant, an operation opened in New York City in 1827, offered as one of its signature dishes a cut from the short loin called a Delmonico steak. Due to its association with the city, it is often referred to as a New York strip steak". And here we thought it was because it was the shape of Manhattan? Believe Wikipedia if you like, but this is a classic steak one way of the other. This is that steak you dream about when you come back from traveling the world or maybe after enduring a long prison sentence. The one you think about when you aren't thinking about that special someone in your life. Our New York steaks are cut to 8oz(225 grams)
