I sure hope he did, but how do you really broach the subject tastefully (no pun intended)? I mean, does one say, "I picked up a lovely siraz from Australia, and do try some of the fried spinach -- it's devine. The meatballs are about 50 % my ass fat. The pasta is perfectly al dente and ... oh do try the potatoes--doorbell! Be right back, darlings!"
Classic!
