That is the British way: rather gluttonous and which encourages waste. If you want more, you can always take it from the pot (where it's being kept warm), or serving platter, after you've finished what's on your plate. *That* is the European (and Italian) way - and which helps prevent waste.
Learn to take time to enjoy and savour your food, rather than gulp it down like gruel!
Marco.
Funny you should mention the word gruel - if I were presented with that portion I would be saying to you "Please Sir, I want some more", or "Get some more on there, ya tight git"
And doing it the Italian way would not prevent waste in my case - I NEVER leave any of a meal, and that's not due to gluttony. I just know how much is the right amount, so why would I be arsed eating a half portion then taking myself away to put some more on? Your meal would barely cover the bottom of me trough
I do admit though to having a "healthy" appetite, and I have heard it said of me "I'd rather keep him for a week than a fortnight".
