You missed out on the Worldwide Gathering of Clan MacIntyre, cajuncelt!
Jim Walters is the owner of Caledonian Kitchen. He provides a frozen version of his haggis that is cooked and served at the host hotel for the aforementioned Rabbie Burns Supper here in Houston. It's better than the canned.
I was sorry we missed the "aftergames" events in Houston, but that was my first competition in that heat/humidity! Whew. I was punished.
I would have liked to have gone to that. Being a piper and being a MacIntyre is like being a MacCrimmon and being a piper. I've seen Glennoe from Google Earth (lol) and can't wait to visit.
I tried the sirloin and lamb haggis the Caledoninan Kitchen had. Both were excellent. Honestly some of the best I've had.
