They still had springbok though - checkout guy said its like a leaner venison, but I still passed up on it. Did get some quail and partridge though as I've not tried cooking them before.
Also saw the velvet crabs - I'd be interested to know what you do with them as they look a bit small to treat like normal crab?”
