The barbarian strikes again

During the lunch at the Quattro Passi the week before last, we had a little discussion around the table. All the Americans claimed proudly that they were very open-minded, and would eat ANYTHING. Yeah, right.

That is, until I mentioned that I am quite fond of reindeer. As a main course. The whole restaurant suddenly fell quiet. Everybody around the table took a brief look at me, thinking "did she just say that?" Then they all turned way - in disgust. I sure know how to make new friends. My husband nearly cracked up, you should have seen the faces.

For some strange reason, I always crave very "Norwegian" food after traveling. So, today it is time for reindeer stew ("finnbiff"). Moooooahahaaaa.
