That's great.
I've bitten the end off before I've even paid for it.
It's gone.
I get strange looks from the women on the checkout.
Okay, so my dream starter, and I have thought long and hard about this, is going to have to be, I think, a sort of a pasta with truffle and a big mound of shaved parmesan on the top, which I think is probably controversial.
The amount of Parmesan.
But the reason I have opted for that is that when I was in my early 20s living in North London and Titanic had come out and my this is the story that you're hoping I was going to tell properly.
And my life changed overnight in many, many, many great ways, but in also some ways that were quite alarming for Kate from Reading, who never expected to be a famous person anyway.
And I suddenly couldn't go out.
I mean, I really couldn't leave the house, whether it was photographers there or, you know, just fans.
It was mad.
And this was just my little two-bedroom flat in N7.
My neighbors, who I got to know very quickly and were very, very kind, were Giorgio and Plaxi Locatelli.
And Giorgio Locatelli, wonderful, very well-known, highly regarded Italian chef.
And at that point, he ran a restaurant in South London, but he didn't have his own restaurant.
So he wasn't the Giorgio Locatelli of who he then later became.
And they saw very quickly that I couldn't go out.
So their concern was, how is she going to be able to go to Waitrose?
We have to feed her.
And so they would call me and they'd say, okay, so listen, George has just come back from work and he's managed to bring back some leftovers or some extras or whatever it was.
