Very low end: goat. There was an Indian restaurant near a museum we visited, and I saw it as an option and figured why not. Turns out it's mostly like lamb. Quelle surprise.
Haven't had it since. It's hard enough finding anywhere that serves lamb, in the US. It's just not on our radar. I think everywhere I've seen it is either some kind of ethnic cuisine (mostly Indian and Greek, since a few years in Bavaria had quite an impact on my palette) or some upscale restaurant treating it as exotic. Otherwise you have to buy a shoulder and slow-cook it yourself.
As an Indian myself, thinking of goat as exotic feels funny. I guess in a sense it's true though.
As an American raised in West Virginia, thinking of goat as exotic feels funny as well lol. When I was a kid, my mom had a goat to eat the grass on the hill that was too steep to mow.
Heh
Side note: I want to try goat mowing.
Now I'm mad that I didn't even make that pun on purpose lol
And the secret to goat mowing is you gotta move the stake that the goat is tied to around the yard so the goat can get all the grass and not just one circle
