I want to try it.  It's a shame they don't advertise goat in the restaurants if it's so delicious I am sure it would tempt some of the Brits aways for the inevitable "Steak".  Goat seems to be the national dish in Turkey but they don't put it in the restaurants, for fear the British would be offended I suppose.  However, the national dish of Malta is Rabbit Stew which I absolutely loved when we were there.

Lamb/mutton is so expensive can't help but wonder if it's substituted with goat?

Peecee, I think you are right because the mince I have bought there certainly does not taste the same and even the smell when cooking is different.  I think that's why a number of restaurants offer an eat as much as you like curry evening - once any meat is in a curry sauce you can't really distinguish what it is - it is really only the texture that is different.  My father would never eat curry after serving for six years with Army in India - he saw too much of what went in it.
