Ariyana's dinner at Fat Matts
It was Monday. I was tired from school and Mr. Benschine recommended I attend Fat Matts restaurant because his best friend would give me food for free. As I glanced at the menu, I wanted the dinner that would taste more like a home cooked meal so I ordered Collard served in ham hock with mashed potatoes on the side. As I took a bite on the ham hock it had a slight bacon flavor. I could instantly tell it originated from Europe. The collard greens had the ham hock flavor with a tad bit of onion. The onions were very hot as it complemented the collards. I read in magazine article that the onion originated from Europe as well. Then I went for the mashed potatoes. As I took a bite of the mashed potatoes the taste was a mixture of an American and European dish. I contain bacon bits which originated from Europe and the potatoes originated from the Americas. As I went for a second bite the butter melted down my throat. The butter originated from Europe. After my last bite I was happy with the dish and kindly left a tip of 5 cents.
