A roasted ostrich feast for all


Bon Appétit magazine recommends trying a spicy chili rub on the Thanksgiving turkey to liven up the traditional feast in 2013, but that still pales in comparison to the boldness of a roasted ostrich feast. Even the most gloriously plump free range turkey looks quaint next to these comic photos of a massive bird turned meal. 

Though the exact date of this dining spectacle is unknown, all photographs were taken at 
Lincoln Park, Los Angeles, California.

    Lovely, and I will do a post on this farm on my own blog. But since I'm told it's rude o promote my own blog in a comment, I'll refer you instead to a great site with postcards and more pictures of the Los Angeles Ostrich Farm, which operated for decades: The History of Lincoln Heights site: www.lincolnheightsla.com
