Following up to Umbrian
OK lets do a food version (with help from Restaurant magazine for the teams)
US (cheesburger), Brazil (feijoda completa), France (coq au vin), saudi (kabssah) Frances coq au vin looks strong with many good but ageing dishes still on the bench. The US claim pizza should be playing for them and are red carded, France go through.
Germany (currywurst), Trinidad (callaloo), Serbia (cevapicci), Angola) mwamba de galinha being callaloo (based on total ignorance) callaloo goes through
home made ice cream 743pammyt It is with great amusement that I read the banter that has been going on back and forth between you three young ladies must not forget the...
England (rost bif), Equador (cuy a la quitena (guinea pig)), Iran (chelo kebab), Holand (erwtensoep), the kebab goes through even though England subsbreastute fish and chips at the last minute.
Japan (sushi), Italy (pizze), Spain (paella), Tofo (egbo pinchon-goat) is "the group of rest"
raw fish goes out and its down to paella v pizza, but when pizza is sent off in the second half and risotto comes on as a subsbreastute with pasta warming up, it looks tough for Spain. Then manager Ferran Adria remembers the regions and suckling pig, txangurro and an empanada come on in place of various tapas to strengthen the defence, spain go through.
SEMIS
Iran v trinidad Iran go through when Trinidad dont turn up on time
France v Spain
a high scoring game with goals scored by many clbuttic dishes but towards the final whistle many french dishes seem tired and old, and a mysterious foam ghosts in to settle it. Spain win.
Final Iran (kebab) Spain (paella)
After much expectation the game is a damp squib, the kebab is found thrown up outside a pub and paella win the trophy.
