Just a quick hello! I was Googling around for some cooking inspiration, and stumbled across your site. Glad to see that you’re both well.

Can I be cheaky and suggest a good wine to go with this dish ? Well, I’m going to try

I would say that the richness of the Lambs hearts and the Rosemary would really be complimented by a wine called “3 Fincas 2007″, it has a lovely oaky quality which will help to help the diner to explore the earthiness of this dish.

Hope you like it, it really is an quality accompaniment to hearts.

All the best. Phil

Thanks for theisrecipe. I think more restaurants should serve heart; when done well, it’s amazing. To me, it blends the flavor of steak, mild foie gras, and just a hint of liver, making a really interesting combination and one somewhat unusual for meat.

Should you ever venture to San Francisco, check out Coco500 restaurant. The chef there, Mike Morrison, is quite adventurous. In fact, he served a grilled lamb heart salad that blew me away. He seared the whole heart, leaving it a bit rare, then slicing it along the bias.

See http://meatmeister.wordpress.com/2009/05/10/grilled-lamb-heart-coco-500-sf/ for review and pix. Cheers.

Comment on Open letter to Morrisons Plc. by The Necromancer

Your correspondent is annoyed that isles at her local Morrisons are cluttered and that width is restricted by 40%. This is no accident or example of bad management. It is one of a great many ploys used by the major supermarkets to make you buy more than you had originally intended to.

They deliberately restrict traffic passage in certain areas to slow down your progress through the store, thereby making you spend more time looking at products. Often in these restricted passage areas there will be particular products which they wish to off-load. They also place shelves at the end of isles. Customers often think that the items on these shelves are on offer or reduced but invariably they are not; it’s just another ploy to make you buy more. I have no evidence to suggest that Morrisons are any worse than the other major players; Sainsbury, Asda/Walmart and Tesco. They have all invested considerable resources and money into researching these ploys and honing them to extract the most money out of you. You can clearly expect it to be even more prevelant during the economic restriction of recession.

So, not so mush as sign of bad management, more one of poor customer service.

Nope, they don’t appear to publish any and their mail system appears to bounce all the “legal” ones… postmaster and abuse, for example.

I think you need to factor in sausages.

It’s crap, isn’t it? It actually has fewer story links, but takes up much more space than the old design.

As for the grey-on-white text… huh?!
