A quiet linguine


A quiet dinner today ahead of my birthday weekend; fried Onions and Ham Linguine with a little chopped chilli. I’ve not had linguine at home before, it doesn’t seem so different to Spaghetti, it has an oval cross section rather than Spaghetti’s circular one. Also as its coarse bronze drawn, sauce is supposed to stick to it better. That claim will have to wait until another time to be tested. I’ve known my friend, D since birth and as our birthdays are two days apart we usually meet up at the very least. I phone him to check arrangements for his visit tomorrow; he usually fails to pick up the phone leaving everything to his manservant, voicemail, but I’m in luck on this occasion as I catch him waiting for an early table for dinner at some rib place (Damon’s) near where he lives in Lincoln. I’d previously suggested we do dinner and drinks when he comes down, which he agrees to and he says he wants to go to Teri-Aki, as there’s not a surplus of decent Asian restaurants where he lives. I agree, ask him to eat a couple of ribs for me and hang up. This lazy linguine is clearly no match for ribs.
