A recent Chowhound discussion about where to find the best goat dishes in Boston yielded many suggestions spanning styles and cuisines. Here are a few favorites:
• Cantonese stewed goat at Kantin in the Super 88 food court: It’s served with a sauce made from fermented tofu, Luther says.
• Haleem at Darbar: This Pakistani goat stew is even better the next day when the flavors have melded, Prav says. And Nab recommends asking for other goat specials, like nihari and paya.
• Black goat stew (pictured) at Westborough Korean Restaurant: As they discussed at length last winter, many hounds think it’s worth the drive from Boston.
• Spicy coconut curried goat stew at Highland Kitchen: A mainstay, served with rice and fried plantains.
• Mannish water at Lorenz Island Kuisine: Matt H thinks this is a good version of Jamaican goat-head soup.
