Hanging at my non-secret hideaway with sempei Mac Kobayashi.
On January 3rd, to continue celebrating the new year, we organized the parents, uncle/aunt and cousins to head over to Mac Kobayashi’s Rural Caprine Farm for some leisurely bar-b-q fun.
I gave farm tours to check on the big pigs and tiny horse and the old cow barns, feed storage areas, piles of dirt, old van, possible campgrounds and whatnot.
Anyhow, was very pleasant and i love eating Mac’s food but even more, hanging out with him and his ridiculous music collection.
The parents and uncle/aunt enjoyed some Koti Beer and Mac’s assortment of wines – so happy!
Of course Mac’s meat is on point with sear on outside and rare on inside (if that’s what you like)along with grilled meats, there were big green salads with goat cheese and his absurd prosciutto sorta meatMe & Mac-san / goat-farmer, music aficionado, rustic gourmet, best dude – as seen at Rural Caprine Farm, Okayamagoat milk soft cream by the hardwood barrel fire / solid comboeven better is Ryoko enjoying the goat milk soft cream by the fire!
