Quito, formally San Francisco de Quito, is the capital city of Ecuador, and at an elevation of 9,350 feet (2,800 meters above sea level), it is the highest official capital city in the world. Located in Ecuador, South America, Quito is situated in the Guayllabamba river basin, on the eastern slopes of Pichincha Volcano, an active stratovolcano in the Andes mountains.
The only difference is the location on the animal. On a cow for example, the top sirloin is a slightly higher cut on the beast than the bottom sirloin. The generic term sirloin is another sirloin cut that is just above the tenderloin.
October 17, 2009. Top sirloin steak is a great steak for grilling and in my experience, while not as tender as steaks from the short loin, such as the filet mignon, they have more flavor. So with the wife out and the kids in bed (early of course), it's a great time for the manliest meal, steak and potato(es).
