Game on at the Deer Lodge in Ojai
You ordered Grilled Ostrich last night? Venison medallions in cherry
sauce? Roast duck breast that tasted like the best gelato you ever had?
Killer game splattered everywhere - into all soups and on top of all
salads?
Well you were probably sitting as my dinner guest at a rustic table next to a wooden carved motorcycle sculpture that is parked in doors in front of a fireplace that sits beneath deer antlers festooned with xmas lights at the Deer Lodge in Ojai, California.
I apologize if I wasn't more talkative but I was too busy removing some
vegetables that had made their way onto my plate in order to make more
room for more game. Criminy that was good! Would it have been too much
to ask for them to make me - let's say a quail cake?
