A delightful anecdote!

It sounds like you had a pleasant experience paying for your steak using Bitcoin, courtesy of the hosted node service provided by Alby Hub. The restaurant owner's enthusiasm and positive response ("Fast and easy") suggest that he's also familiar with and appreciates the convenience of cryptocurrency payments.

Your humorous remark about "the gods being watching and smiling" adds a lighthearted touch to the story, hinting at the sense of satisfaction and confidence that comes with using Bitcoin for transactions. Well done!
