  1. ooh sounds like you had the only edible stuff to me but maybe my taste is a little more 'american'? although did they know bone marrow is what old grandpas eat? or at least mine did in the 80s!

  2. yeah we were pretty safe. the marrow bone was probably the most adventurous or pork belly. that was the best bbq sandwich of all time. maybe we can go there for a bday?! put it on the list!!
