I never really had much lamb , until about 15yrs ago...we were in California, and were in the Anderson Valley, visiting and sampling at various wineries...(The Anderson Valley is a new and upcoming wine area in California, on a road going from Boonville over to the coast)...

Anyway we were told to stop in at the Flood Gate Inn for lunch, which we did...we had a wonderful ground lamb patty, thick, juicy and rare, and served on a mound of wonderful greens, and assorted veggies..it was heavenly...

Gosh, tho, now that I think about it, we did used to have some wonderful lamb up in Seattle, at the Pike Street Market...

For those who have never been there(which I assume is most here), if you go to the Pike Street Market, while visiting all the different vendors, you can stop in one of several places for something to hold in your hand, and munch on, while shopping...

There was the Greek Gyros vendor, who always has a wonderful huge slab of lamb on his rotisserie, revolving around...order a Gyros, and it is that wonderful Greek Gyros bread, wrapped around shaved slices of lamb, and combined with greens and veggies, and topped off with a wonderful cucumber-yogurt dressing...Good eats...

We have lamb patties quite often.. We love them.. I also use ground lamb in all my Pasta Sauces.. I make my meatballs with ground lamb, beef and pork.. The extra that makes them good is a container of Rocotta cheese and a full cup of Parmesian.. My new recipe I got from my daughter Dyan, and it's the best one yet.. Yummm.. Good as any I've ever had, and all my friends and daughter in law are Italian...
