I think the pictures should explain the basis of Thursday's dinner- at least what was served. In a nutshell, K-State students of nutrition as well as restaurant management hosted this dinner which they prepared themselves. The theme was an all-Irish one. Though, I always thought shepherd’s pie was English!
I find it good that what is considered low class food such as shepherd’s pie, meat pie, bangers and mash, etc. found in places as Ireland and England (Wales excluded cause nobody likes to watch a "Wale" eat) doesn't have quite the same standard in this country. You can find such "pub" food in really nice restaurants in the U.S. Still, you wouldn’t find the Queen of England eating a hearty steak and kidney pie when she can amuse herself with a roasted breast of chicken wrapped in pancetta with sage and onion marmalade and a side of spiced compote of butternut squash- prepared at the snap of a finger.
This evening's shoot wasn't as good as I hoped. I'm still working on taking the best pictures I can. (That is not a boast, though it should be!)
