You learn something new every day, or at least you should.

Ortolan Eating - The Taste Of Things (2024)

I'm watching a film involving a lot of cooking...in France, 19th century. There is a scene in which a group of men go to a friends house to eat "Ortolan" ...a small songbird. I had to look it up as it is a very interesting ritual...The birds are cooked whole....they are served on a plate and the participants put a napkin over their head and devour it whole starting with the feet...they only leave the beak!  

 something new every day.
