ダチョウ肉の串焼きを食べました。ダチョウ肉は本当においしいです。もう少し安ければ、普段使いのお肉として使いたい！みんなで食べてメジャーなお肉にしていきましょう！

石岡ダチョウ王国内にあるダチョウ料理メインの売店です。ダチョウ肉の串焼きとハンバーガーを食べましたが…個人的にはリピートはなしですね。（どうして牛・羊・鶏・豚の肉は多くの国で流通し、ダチョウの肉はそうではないのかが食べたらわかる気がします）ただ、ダチョウを食べられたことがない方は一度食べてみることを強くオススメします！

ダチョウのお肉を使った料理が楽しめます。BBQは予約が必要のようですが、他にもお刺身や、目玉焼き、カレーなどあります。ダチョウのお肉を使ったハンバーガーを食べましたがやわらかくて美味しかったです。
