It's the meatiest!

My coworker that typically gets in around the time I do usually in the morning is on vacation and nobody else has wandered into the office yet so I'm taking advantage of this to keep my ipod on for a bit. It's amazing how much this makes being at work palatable

Happy belated Birthday. ^_^

Yum, antelope fondue! Did the meats get cooked in oil or soup?

[herefox]

Thank you :-)

That was sort of the other problem, really. Typically when I've been to fondue the meat is cooked in oil or broth but we got a grill (last minute panic choice because we'd forgotten to figure out what style we wanted) So it was a lightly oiled grill rather than fondue. Which, honestly, their style of meats seemed to want anyway as many of them were marinated. I don't eat tons of meat though and found some of them a bit bland without the extra flavors from the oil/broth/wine that's more traditional.

The exotic meats were fun though. Could have had boar, alligator or kangaroo too (though I don't think I could ever bring myself to order the last!)

I see! Yeah, grill makes sense for the Maillard reaction. ^_^

Mm, boar meat.

Almost got the boar but that weird cheese wrap thing instead :-) Incidentally I think you live like three blocks from me, you know...should talk food in person one of these days.
