Will you eat bone marrow? I retried and its . . . . . .
Will you eat bone marrow? I retried and its . . . . . .
Last week visited a restaurant, Les Vieilles Canailles, in Aix-en-Provence and had a very strange food. Will you eat this bone marrow?
The restaurant
The owner with the menu
He told me they serve a very special starter known as bone marrow, I actually hesitated a little so I ordered the octopus starter instead
with a pastis and a bottle of wine
My heart was a little unsettled wanting to try the bone marrow so I ordered it not know what it is, how big it is and how its cooked (my only idea of bone marrow is Malay's tulang in red sauce which I don't eat)
So came the bone marrow which looks quite beautiful but the bone looked a little on the big side
When I dug in this came out
and another
Inside is full of this jelly thing after just 2 teaspoons full I fell very full and wanna throw out, its like eating fats. Now I know what bone marrow is and I will never want to eat this again.
For the main course the veal was perfect though, I really enjoyed this
raw inside

I frequently ate bone marrow as a child. I probably wouldn't here unless assured of supply chain

No, it was in my home country. Bone marrow is bone marrow. All the same in terms of looks. Like jelly? I suppose I could describe the consistency as a bit like that, but more like a baked custard. It came in the bones we ate, which had meat on too. I loved digging out the marrow.
Edit for clarity...we didn't eat the bones. Not a family of dogs

You can get it in the calf-on-a-spit restaurants here, I've been out with locals and they've sucked it out with a straw.
Silence, exile, and cunning.

That's the reason why violet gave up eating it.
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.
