[QUOTE="Annb, post: 2488221, member: 25851"] Neil and the pizza with custard : We were on an Iranian ship, just after the revolution. The new government ordered that people had to be given jobs, whether they had experience or qualifications or not. As a result, the man employed as a chef was actually a barber and was not very good at cooking. The chief steward did not get on with the chef but told him which recipes to use for the meals offered. Apparently on this particular day, part of the menu was to be ready made pizzas out of the store. But the pizzas, the chief steward knew, were not very cheesy, so he told the chef to make a cheese sauce to serve alongside. However, he made a mistake with the recipe number in the book he had given to the chef. The recipe was for custard. Chef did actually realise that it was a mistake but he had a score to settle with the chief steward so just did as ordered and made custard. The dining room steward served the pizzas and then came round with a sauce boat saying "you won't be wanting cheese sauce..." Everyone agreed, picking up the hint but Neil insisted that he did want sauce with his pizza. And he ate it happily and told us that he had enjoyed it. He couldn't do that now. [/QUOTE]
