Thats 232 degrees C for those who use real temperatures.
Wilso, did you know Celsius had it backward? He originally wanted 0 to be boiling and 100 to be freezing...
Yes, I did know that. What we use is correctly called centigrade.
Maybe in Oz, but I was raised to call it Celsius... so I went and googled it and found:
Quote: ...When speaking of a Centigrade, did one mean the temperature scale or 1/100 of some degree measure? In order to remove this confusion, scientists agreed in 1948 that the temperature unit degree Centigrade would henceforth be called degree Celsius and the symbol would be °C.
But don't the lamb sound good? I've had single chops but never portions of a rack like that... next time I have a lot of money, I'll try it.

I didn't think you learnt that in the US. I thought it was all imperial measures.
No, imperial measures are Canadian... Us in US say Fahrenheit, and gallons contain eight pints rather than eight liters... altho our soft drinks do come in one and two liter bottles these days. I suppose we'll wise up sooner or later!
(Therefore, it's impossible to compare Canadian gas prices with US... not only is the dollar different, so is the gallon! Thank goodness I don't drive!)
