Paella have you had it?

Just had a conversation with someone who has never had it. When done right, it is one of the best dishes out there.



(yes, I am hungry)

Re: Paella have you had it?

I've had it a number of times. The problem is that it needs to be prepared correctly. Some people have cooked it that used far too much saffron. If they do, it's effectively ruined.

Re: Paella have you had it?

I don't like mussels, so the cat loves it when we eat paella

Have had it many time, and I make a pretty version of it.

Paella have you had it?
I used to have it every year on my birthday. it was my favorite dish. My family would cook it for me, with rice and vegetables and shrimp and crab claws and sausage.
I don't have it anymore though because I'm a vegetarian now. I haven't had it in many years. I remember how good it was, though.
