Lovely Lamb Shanks

Simply the most delicious lamb shanks I've ever tasted! And where are these wonders to be found I hear you ask? Well, this is the most popularly requested meal to be had at the Servant's Kitchen at Woolmers Estate near Longford, and was what I enjoyed last week.

Accompanied by mashed potatoes and a most acceptable glass of red wine (Tasmanian of coures!) the lamb shanks were followed by a yummy sticky date pudding. Actually the meal was also accompanied by interesting and stimulating conversation - but that's another story!

Consumed in front of a roaring log fire, we were left feeling very pleased with the world and quite replete! All quite bad for the waist-line of course and now I shall need to be walking a little further and perhaps faster each day - but while I'm doing that I can be planning my next trip for lunch at Woolmers.

Now I wonder which of my friends I should round up for my next delicious (and perhaps equally wicked) expedition.....
