  1. I went to Formal on Monday 10th May, and the food was very tasty, particularly the sauce that came with the chicken.

    However, as I so often do after formal, I still felt hungry afterwards. Meals in formal often come with fairly large portions of meat, but often little veg and potato (or in this case pasta). Would it be possible to have larger portions of veg and potato/pasta at formals to help fill us up?

    The portion sizes in ordinary cafeteria are great. Would it be possible to have such portion sizes (or at least something similar) in formal?
