There is no fuckin way the foods he talks about are real lmao I always thought it was just an amalgamation of fancy sounding ingredients, because most of the things sound horrible

It’s actually a west African dish.

Seconded. African food has some banger dishes. Peanut butter soup and goat curry all the way.

Honestly don't remember the actual foods - apart from when his fiance puts sushi on a plate to spell out his friend's initials - so they could have been made up. There's also a point where he becomes frustrated with it all and just says it's overpriced with almost nothing on the plate. :-)
But what was it? The topics on The Patty Winters Show become increasingly crazy ... Not even sure whether I picked them up when I read the book, but someone listed them here once.

I remember laughing out loud at his mention of cherimoya sorbet and trying to explain to a friend why it was funny.
