Lamb plov (pilaf) yesterday and it was bloody lovely. Tender lamb and the fat was almost as good as the meat.

The owner is Uzbek and I realised they were playing Islamic prayers before asking for a beer along with my food.

Fortunately, he wasn't there, so I brought my own and wallowed in the shame/glory of my haramness.

Lamp and lamb. Both bringing great joy to mankind.
