I did not actually see the book myself, but mom had said the recipe started out with 25 pounds of potatoes, 12 pounds of onions, one medium ostrich, cleaned and plucked........it was roasted like a turkey, but it must have been a gigantic pan in a huge oven. They probably had a really big oven in the hotel for that kind of thing. Ostrich is good meat, low in fat and cholesterol. The ostrich people were ahead of their time.
