Literally?

Actually I seem to remember eating goulash in Budapest and our hosts were being rather coy about the actual meat involved. Especially coy when someone asked about horse... It was tasty, so given what you often read about horse-meat, probably it wasn't. Horse-meat that is.
Is it all the sinew, and the amount of work that all the muscles do that make it a starvation meat?

I had a very beautiful horse steak in Basel last year. It wasn't in the least bit tough, quite the opposite. Actually I liked it so much I went back to the same restaurant a few days later and had another one, with Oliver Sudden (as a companion, not a side dish, you understand).

Is it difficult to cook then?
It strikes me that most things taste pretty good if you cook them right.
Slugs are probably an exception to this rule, though I'm game if anyone knows a good method...

I thought he'd gone a bit quiet of late. Has someone gone and eaten a bit too much of him?
Presumably he'll be back after a little regeneration. Like a liver.

It was actually in the form of a horse burger in southern France in 1990.

What's that burning?  Well my neighbours have visitors and fired up their barbeque and the smoke is blowing in my direction, smells like Tandoori chicken to me ...... And there are some interesting looking foil parcels cooking, wonder what's in those?

Now the bowls of salad have appeared and several bottles of very chilled white wine .... And I've not been invited!

(Frank's got his apron on, totally in charge of it all - barbeques are a man thing!!)

Me?

Don't look at me, I'm a veggie aardvark - it does cause some problems though!

Had a very nice Punjabi Chana last night at Imran's in Ladypool Road last night. It's always variable there so you never know what you're going to get, but it's nearly always pretty good.

Praps BBQs allow some men (no-one here obviously Grin) to say that they've cooked dinner once or twice a year - mind you, if this is the best they can do



(sorry about that picture all fellow veggies)
