Modern Kolkata Park Street restaurants (Trinca's, Mocambo, Peter Cat) serve through the full international doneness spectrum for premium cow cuts, reflecting West Bengal's cow-legal status (vs Buffalo-only majority states). The Anglo-Indian club tradition (Bengal Club, Tollygunge Club) historically served international doneness levels.

Doneness terminology varies by country and restaurant. When unsure, describe what you want (e.g., “warm red center”).
