Roe deer from Faygate

Hi
Roe deer is in season . A friend is a professional game stalker and brings us fresh Roe deer from the village of Faygate in West Sussex. The meat is quite subtle with a lamb like texture. It does not need strong acidic marinations to melt it down.The restaurant has received a series of positive press reviews in the past few weeks.So thank you to the newspapers and publications who have written about us.I am currently working on a menu with rare and exotic meats such as zebra ,ostrich and believe it or not python! CITES (the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora) is an international agreement between Governments. Its aim is to ensure that international trade in specimens of wild animals and plants does not threaten their survival. All meat offered can only come as part of this policy. This means that it is either farmed - usually for the skin and the meat is a by product, or under a hunting licence in order to keep the population under control so that the ecosystem is not harmed.

Hello to the world of foodies

This is the first post in my blog. Lets take it as a test post. I spent the day looking for a syringe to use for injecting flavours to meats. A brown man in a chef coat asking for a syringe with needles generates amusing looks from the chemist staffs. I had to make extra efforts to look as gentle and be as explanatory as possible. The evening was interesting. I have been researching similarity of chemical compositions in wines and spices. Isint it amazing to know that Sherry and Madiera wines are great match to dishes with coriander due to the presence of aliphatic aldehydes in the fresh herb as well as these wines!!
