William Cunningham had never met Marlene before so he was invited as well.
I christened the meal "I funghi, I Gamberetti, il Porco e la Pasta"- figure that out yourself!
The taste was heavenly, in some other life I might have been a cook. The ingredients included- pasta (obviously) Mushrooms, Prawns, Onions, Pork sausages- all these fried in honey tinted oil, as usual a chicken accompanied the meal, with some Australian Shiraz wine to wash it all down- Scrumptious
A friend of mine got me some plantains from London, cheaper in London than in Sunderland. I haven't had plantains as a student, so this was special.
Since Marlene was the guest of honour, she got the honour of eating with my sqaure plate- the highest honour that can be bestowed upon a guest.
Unfortunately, the only pics that exist of this meal are really unflattering and do no justice to my culinary skill, but I will make do with what I have

the pic is really unflattering...the presentation is sloppy. LOL at the name of the meal...talking about Marlene is going to be eatings rats, dogs and stuff..you fed her Fungus.
*you still can't cook rice?? :P
Sounds like the description was better than the real thing. Well, you sure need a crash course in presentation of dishes. Any retired chef can volunteer to help you. In addition, you need a complementary course in photo composition to produce an appealing photo of an "unflattering" dish. For this, I will personally provide the technical advice.
Bonus, a follow up course on proper cooking of rice dishes awaits you in Huissen. This course has a money back guarantee for single grain , non-soggy rice and you will yourself agree never to resort to messy and unflattering pasta dishes.
