Just wanted to say that the London Grill in the Benson Hotel in Portland, Oregon serves ostrich. My finance ordered it the last time we were there. It was WON-DER-FUL! We are bummed that it hasn't caught on. We haven't seen the meat in any stores around here. -Jean

Ostrich is on the menu at "Hudson's on the Bend" in the Austin TX area. I didn't order it, and was kind of regretting not trying it when I came upon a sample in a local grocery store (Central Market). It was quite good (even when prepared in an electric skillet in the middle of the store :) Tasted sort of like a cross between beef and dark meat turkey to me.
Just had it at a restaurant in Bethany beach delaware, Sedona Restaurant. It was served with rabbit sausage. I think they also had emu. It was great! Mary f. ~~~ |\ \ / /,\\ / |,4-\ / '-~~_\ /_ ( ; ) ( ) @__) (__@ It's a widdle pud (my cat's in heat, what's new with you?)
