In Search of the Perfect Leg of Lamb
Wondering if there are a few butchers (hopefully in manhattan) where I can find a truly great leg of lamb for an upcoming dinner party? Have tried freshdirect, but I haven't always been crazy about the meat quality...
Thanks very much.

Go to the Union Square Greenmarket on Wednesday or Saturday and visit Karen Weinberg of "3 Corner Field Farm":http://dairysheepfarm.com/. Her lamb is absolutely delicious. So is the mutton, when it's available.
She also makes wonderful sheep's milk soap, excellent cheese, and the best yogurt ever.
