Ezra Dyer leans over his workstation, a chef s knife in hand; he carefully manoeuvres a slab of rich, red meat, slicing it into manageable stewing chunks and setting them aside.
The moose meat that he s processing was given to the Gathering Place by a regular donor who often provides wild game and vegetable to the outreach centre s kitchen. Today, the meat Dyer is preparing will be fried and put into a soup for the evening rush of hungry clientele.
