You can download the recipes here. I think I might try to prepare the same menu for dinner—whattaya think? Looks yummy.

OK, I'm going to be lazy and not look it up: What is a brace of birds?

This does sound yummy. Although all that warm food makes me want a crisp salad too for some reason. Look at those wine pairings too! Pinot Noir is my favorite. I would be pretty darn tipsy if I attended this luncheon. Yes, I am a lightweight.

A "brace" is a pair -- in this case, pheasant and duck.
