Tete De VeauI’ve long wanted to try tete de veau, which is french for “veal head”. Except I seriously doubt that I could find a restaurant that serves it without traveling either north to Montreal or south to NYC. So maybe my best bet would be to just buy a head and try cooking it myself. I found this website in French that goes into all sorts of detail about how to go about stripping the head of its meat so you can cook it. The picture below is from that site. |

My favorite spot for this dish, Pierre au Tunnel in NYC, just closed.
Like tripe, it’s really good when you’re sharing food with a few people (you usually don’t end up having to share too much of it) but it’s a little rich for a main dish.
