Hey, I wandered in off the street, and got to partake, even though I didn’t know anyone there (well, Chris, a little). I can attest that the lamb was perfect. Phil’s right, it’s all about how much fat you trim off.
Thanks for allowing me to join in. Great meeting Heidi, Carey, Ella, et al!
BTW, why no mention of the worcestery '72 Burg, or the blechy '76 Palmer, ‘03 Guigal Brune/Blonde or any of the other wines that were still two-thirds filled when i left? Nice surprises: the Zellarbach Cab was surprisingly youthful, Chris’ cheapy Garrigue CdR was very yum, and Woodward Canyon.
Once again, this time with Costco lamb, Phil Franks’ lambsicles KILLED IT!!! Even though Cris gave up his man card by allowing (and WATCHING) the meat flame up while Phil went in the house, they still kicked ass!
The King of the Offlines found an offline in the thread about lamb. I am impressed. A great start to the new year for James. Can he do an offline a day!? we’ll find out soon enough!
