Eating out

I make goat curry, when I can obtain goat. Unfortunately supply is very intermittent here in the UK Midlands. Interesting comments on eating Italian. Yes, the big chains I really struggle to find anything, but our local 'real' Italian has a number of really tasty and low carb choices. Not because they are doing anything special, but because 'real' Mediterranean food is a lot less carby than the menus in the regular chain eateries.
 

What do you eat low carb there?
 
Pedantic point but the West Indian dish is called Curry Goat not Goat Curry for some reason. I have also had Goat Water which is better than it sounds and is a goat stew but flavored with spices like clove and cinnamon.
 
I live in Canada so it wouldn't be something you'd expect here.
Goes to prove anything is better when deep fried. Even crickets.
Actually, on a visit to Montreal I ate witchety grubs (cooked in garlic butter, very like king prawns in taste and texture - delicious) and deep fried millipedes (tasted like Twiglets which I don't much care for - not for me).
This was though in the café at the Insectarium museum.
 
I ate the worm out of a bottle of Mezcal at christmas.
Neither the worm, or the Mezcal were particularly inspiring.

Frogs legs are another low carb choice, providing you have them with garlic butter, rather than a sage stuffing.
(I have some in the freezer at the moment).
 
I think that would be a hard find all the way out west where I am. But deep fried and or garlic butter..... I'll try anything.
Well except the Mars Bar.
