191_I'm at a steak house.jpg

This is the iconic fiberglass cow sculpture for Kyloe Restaurant & Grill in Edinburgh, Scotland.
It became a local landmark but was ordered removed by the city council because permission was not granted for installation on the listed building.
The restaurant famously held a funeral for the cow in 2015 after a petition to save it failed.
60 loyal fans, all dressed in black, attended the funeral. There was a band and pall-bearers as well.

I am sad that they made them take it down.
Great work getting this for all to see and enjoy!

This remarkable curiosity still makes me smile, except that his belly was somewhat pierced... Great shot however. V.
