Turkeys are perfect for feeding larger gatherings.
I am not an encore, not a pudding, I am the main dish.
I love The Cheesecake Factory, especially the chicken marsala. I almost always pick that dish; it tastes unbelievable.
I found university a little dispiriting. I thought I would enter the great halls of Plato, but instead I entered the halls of an intellectual sausage factory. I wanted to do something not on the main course, and chose the environment.
The islamo-fascists see Israel as the appetizer. We are the main course.
When I was a child, we always had wine on the table, no matter how simple the meal. The wine had no special identity; it was just 'the wine,' from the cellar cask. The rules were general: white with the first course, red with the main course.
Comedy just pokes at problems, rarely confronts them squarely. Drama is like a plate of meat and potatoes, comedy is rather the dessert, a bit like meringue.
I cannot stand when you go to a wedding and get fed tiny portions. I want everyone to have a good feed on my wedding day, so I plan on having several types of sausage, mash, and gravy up for grabs. Every guest will have a Yorkshire pudding, too!

The fish is the star of the plate.
It is impossible to think of any good meal, no matter how plain or elegant, without soup or bread in it.
At my dinner parties, I like to serve cheese after the main course because you still have red wine in the glass, and it goes very well with the cheese. And that is what they do in France, and I think they set a good example.
