I recently had really good food on an airplane. Really. Well, to be honest, I bought it at the airport, and ate it on the airplane. Unless you fly first class, you don’t get real meals from the airlines anymore. Which is just as well, when you can buy yummy things like this and eat [...]

Lamb has become our “go-to” meat when company is coming for dinner. It’s tasty, it’s local, and it’s a bit uncommon. In fact, most of our guests either have never had lamb, or are a bit wary.
