The other day Victor (Belgian), for one reason or another, decided it would be a good idea to set up a cooking competition between himself and Roberto (Italian). Lena (French), Benoit (French), Rebecca (German) and I (English! :-P) were asked to act as the impartial judges. Roberto, however, invited half the Italian nation over as his cooking team, forcing Victor to join forces with Benoit. The result was a rather exciting yet bizarre gastronomic journey. The Italians dazzled our tastebuds with fried aubergines, battered steaks and about 52 different sorts of pizzas. Meanwhile the Belgian-French alliance of Victor and Benoit presented us with an egg with tomato sauce starter, followed by a potato, pea and sausage hotpot.
We, as the judges each had to award points for the following categories:
- Appearance
- Smell
- Taste
The Cook-off, with me presenting the results!
I can tell you that Italy won (93-81). The French want me to take them on sometime for an English-French cook-off.... I'm not so sure! As always, I'll keep you all posted!
we had to win !!!!!!!!!!!
