Well, here she is again… The mother in law in her ‘ all of a sudden’ quest for the best lamb.
As you may have read, I had the most delicious and most varied lamb dishes in Turkey. But enough about that already. With my new quest I had to find some good lamb locally….aha! I remembered Taverna Tony in Malibu.
Stopped in last night for a House Specialty…Lamb Tenderloin… charcoal grilled and deliciously spiced (as they say in their menu) in a light black peppercorn sauce. Excellent…succulent. OMG, that kind of sounds like a barbaric, bone tossing over the shoulder woman. I’m really a yoghurt and granola woman..I’m shocking myself here.
Anyway, for appetizer I had a Tiropita plate, which is a blended feta baked in filo– just to make sure I had enough cholesterol for the evening. It was worth it.
They also do a great Klefiko..baby lamb slow roasted with herbs, garlic, onions and oregano. My friend ordered that and was pleased.
Now I’m sure I am going to get letters from Meat Eaters Anonymous or some other twelve step program trying to help me.
Off to Ireland now, where I know they have good lamb (and good golf). ‘Till then .. Ta Ta!
