This is the story of the lamb stew that wasn’t.
It starts with losing two members of Dinner for the foreseeable future – one to an internship at L’Espalier, and the other to rehearsals for a play. On the one hand, those are obviously good things and we’re pleased for them. On the other hand, we won’t get to see them as much and that’s sad. And, on a third hand, they are coincidentally the two people at Dinner who don’t like lamb which means that while they’re off not coming to Dinner I can serve lamb to my heart’s content.
