Dinner report, 22nd July
Another wonderful evening with a very international group of guests, from (deep breath) Germany, Britain, America, Norway, New Zealand, Trinidad and Tobago, Russia and France.
Dinner report, 24th June
Thanks very much to all the guests who came along on Friday evening. We enjoyed the evening very much and hope you all did too.
Pancake day
I should start with a brief explanation for natives of non-English-speaking countries: in the UK, America, Canada, and Australia, Shrove Tuesday (the last day before Lent) is Pancake Day. Supposedly, the reason for this is to use up all the perishable goodies that you're not allowed during Lent.
Dinner on January 7th
A very international crowd joined us last Friday for dinner, including people from America, Sweden, Croatia, Taiwan, Japan and, of course, Germany. Many of you chose to leave comments on the table in your native languages which are pictured below - we just hope you were all telling the truth to us when you said they were nice comments!
Dinner on December 10th
There were fewer people than expected, owing to last-minute cancellations, but fourteen people is still enough for a good time, and we had a great time with you all last Friday.
Dinner on November 12th
Thank you to all our guests for coming along and helping to make the dinner good fun. We hope you had a good time, as we certainly did ourselves. Contrary to normal, we didn't have a lot of table artists, but for those who were creative, your pictures are displayed below.
Dinner on October 8th
Thanks very much to all the guests who came along on Friday evening. We enjoyed the evening very much and hope you all did too.
Homemade pasta
About ten years ago, Toby, my then-flatmate and I had a homemade pasta disaster. At this time, we were both in our first jobs, not very well-paid and didn't have the money or the time to experiment in the kitchen prior to making a dish for friends. So whenever people came round for dinner, which happened quite often, it was a bit hit-and-miss if we were making something new. (I'm pleased to say that the pasta incident was, in fact, the only real disaster, though a few times we had to think quickly on our feet when something turned out differently to expected.)
Ratatouille
Like many people, I suspect, I had long harboured a notion that ratatouille was a naff eighties vegetarian cliché. Sampling a few poor ones in restaurants just confirmed my opinion that it was essentially a tasteless vegetable slop.
Desserts
It's been pointed out, with justification, that my recipes page didn't contain any desserts. I'm not sure I have any good reason to explain this oversight, but I have rectified it already with three of my personal favourites. I hope you like them.
