Lets play a game, lets play a dinner party game. The rules are as follows;

1. You're allowed 4 EoFF members at your dinner party and 4 only - Who do you pick and why?
2. You must make a meal consisting of 3 courses - What are you cooking?


My Guests

1. GoldenBoko - Cos I think he's an awesome chap and hilarious when drunk so... I'd get him plied.
2. Miriel - Because at first I was like helll noooooo! there's no way my food could compare to hers, but then you know, I like a challenge!
3. Shion - I just love her, and I think she'd be a great guest!
4. Parker - Because he needs to stop eating Fray Bentos!

My Dinner!

Nachos with Homemade Salsa, Guacamole and Roasted Red Pepper Dip

Pike, MILF, Manus, Amy, Julian, Alice, Shorty, Rantz, Shiney, FOA, Clo, Tifatis. Probably the only members here I could see myself getting past the starter without stabbing them in the face with the cutlary. Of that only one or 2 would make it to dessert. One would probably make it out the door, but only to serve as a warning to others.

No matter how I play this out in my head, I'm always simply inviting my best mates over and ordering in. xD

So, realistically: Danielle, Dan, Lev, Nicky. We order from Palmyra's Pizza and eat chicken shawarma. No need for starters because the shawarma wraps are massive from Palmyra's Pizza, but if we have to then a garlic bread will do. Dessert is obviously ice cream or whatever else we can find in our freezer.

Alternative groups to stop it being just my closest friends...
1. Rocket Edge, DK, Psychotic, Heath. They know why.
2. Rinoabella, Miriel, Shlup, Chris. They seem like a pretty cool grouping of people that can appreciate variation in their food, and if by any chance there is the possibility that I will get to eat at their places, then I am certainly heading towards some incredible meals. :D
3. Aulayna, Laddy, Quinter Wonderland, Sephex. Four people I don't really know well on a personal level but wouldn't mind doing so. In some case I've known a lot about them for years but still don't really know them enough to... you know... know them. :p
4. NeoCracker, Wolf Kanno, Shoeberto, Pike. Gaming conversation to fill my evening, something I'd never pass up on. :D

As for the home cooking, uh... I struggle here unless it involves stir fry. So it'll be stir fry based.

Starter: Garlic bread. I don't care if it requires zero cooking skill when you buy them from the co-op and shove them in the oven, they still taste bloody good.
Main: Stir fry. I'm talkin' carrot, broccoli, sugar snap peas, baby corn, noodles and... we'll say Szechuan sauce. Our stir fries are always good, we had a friend drooling over some we made on Monday, she was saying that whenever she needs good food she has to come to our place. >=]
Dessert: I don't do desserts, really, it's not something I've ever done as all the desserts I've ever 'made' were already made for me. The closest I can come up with is apple & custard, so that will have to do. Do these foods suit each other? Probably not.

For the record, there actually was a former EoFF member on come dine with me once, and it was probably the most uncomfortable I've ever felt watching a television show. Just screaming at the TV "No, no jesus no why are you doing that". Eventually I had to turn it off, I was too embarrased for them.

That is amazing. If I know the EoFFer in question, I will so watch. And then inevitably have to stop because it's awkward.

Well I had a look on jewtube and it seems like they took it down :( Doesn't appear to be anywhere on the internet at all which is a shame, because it was funny despite being awfully embarrassing. Tho, it's episode 87 of series 25 if anyone cba to look for it themselves. I found that much. :redface:

NeoCracker
01-23-2013, 02:32 PM
Yeah, I'd have the Uber Nerd group.

Wolf Kanno, Ultima Shadow, and Proto.

Sure, Proto's nerd/geek credentials may not be as up to snuff as the rest of us at the dinner table, but......
He........

Anyway!

Food: Whatever the hell they order for themselves at IHOP. Like I'm cooking food for these fuckers.

01-23-2013, 02:39 PM
Oh you're right. Well i've seen it listed as that and as 87. Either way it's not on jewtube anymore so I cba to find it but there's the info for anyone who wants to look I guess :redface:

Oh, if we're adding in entertainment, I have this covered with no problems. For parties of 4-5, I tend to go for Gauntlet and Gauntlet: Dark Legacy (I have a multitap for the PS2), although I also have L4D, L4D2, Halo 3 and probably a few more games which can handle four players. We should be covered for good laughs and our flat is never without a variety of available alcoholic drinks (normally we have vodka, Southern Comfort, wine and a few other things for cocktails which Danielle loves making).

When we are drunk enough, karaoke may commence depending on who is there.

freshly-baked madeleines with chocolate dip.

I'm not really sure I can pick 4 specific people to invite over, I'd welcome anyone...but I think maybe shauna and locky in particular just so I can prove I don't just eat Fray Bentos and faggots.
