Review Assignment


  This is a review that I wrote about a homemade spaghetti dinner.                                                 
                                                           Spaghetti Dinner Review

            On Saturday an exquisite Spaghetti dinner was prepared and after an hour or so, the dinner was ready to be enjoyed. The sauce was of a quality that could only be expected from the best Olive Garden. The actual sauce was tomato based, with a medley of vegetables added: green and red bell peppers, jalapeños, onions, and garlic all sliced to perfection, grilled, and then added to the sauce. The pasta was boiled in water, olive oil, and a little bit of butter, to reduce sticking and help flavor the meal as a whole. One would think that only a professional Italian chef could make pasta to this magnitude. Three types of meats were incorporated into the spaghetti, each prepared in a different way; the meatballs were baked in the oven, to the point of where they were tender on the inside and had a slightly crispy shell; the Louisiana beef hotlinks were grilled and then sliced into equal sized pieces; the ground beef was carefully tended to as it was thawed and was seasoned in the skillet. Once the sauce and the meat were fully prepared, they were mixed with the pasta, creating a meal that was so delicious that a 5 star restaurant would serve it every day, if only to draw in more customers. The taste was exquisite; the sauce perfectly complemented the meats, which had started off spicy, but became mild due to the sauce. The pasta could easily be enjoyed by itself without the meats or sauce, but that would be an insult to the perfect flow of the dish. All in all, if I were to give this meal a rating of one to five stars, I would have to give this meal seventeen and a half stars.
