[Sca-cooks] BAd cooking at Feasts

[Louise Smithson]

Reminds me of a feast I ate once (location anonymous only and overview provided). 
  First course
   Not bad, not enough of some foods though.
  Second course/Third course, I've forgotten some stuff, self defense
  - rice which was mushy and crunchy simultaneously with no salt
  - portions too small to satisfy the table, the beef was greasy and bland and served with mustard freshly squeezed from a dijon mustard tube.
  Everything was under seasoned. 
  Desert 
  - "Italian creme" OK it was supposed to be a rose water flavored egg yolk and cream custard, it looked like baby puke, curdled with black flecks in it.  Yup you really can't cook a custard on a stove top unless you are willing to stand there and stir it constantly.  
   
  Shudder
