GALACTIK COME DINE WITH ME

Welcome to GALACTIK COME DINE WITH ME, for you who don't know Come Dine With Me is a show which makes four or five people hold a dinner party in their homes, after the party they are scored points up to ten by each contestant, at the end of it all the person with the most points wins! In this story we have four contestants from the Galactik football universe: D'jok, Sinedd, Woowamboo and Mei. These four will cook their food and serve it as well as being good hosts. So without further ado… GALACTIK COME DINE WITH ME!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

First we have D'jok who will be holding the first dinner party!

D'jok's list:

Starter: crackers with cheese

Main: Akillian fish with side of salad

Dessert: Akillian fruit crumble

D'jok- yeah I'm quite confident I have a good night coming, I've planned out everything and plan not to spend to much time in the kitchen, You have to spend time with the guests.

Sinedd's thoughts on the starter: Crackers and cheese is a bit plain isn't it? typical D'jok then!

Sinedd's thoughts on the main: I never ate fish on Akillian; come to think about it I only ever ate takeaway pizza, I only just learnt to cook three months go from Artegor!

Sinedd's thoughts on the dessert: Akillian fruits are very nice but can D'jok pull it off? Err no.

Woowamboo's thoughts on the starter: You don't get cheese and crackers on my planet, sounds interesting.

Woowamboo's thoughts on the main: Akillian fish! It sounds great, I'm always ready to try food from different cultures than my own!

Woowamboo's thoughts on the dessert: Again Akillian culture, I am curious to see what fruits grow on such a cold planet.

Mei's thoughts on the starter: Crackers with cheese sounds good; won't exactly get you full up for the main which is exactly what you want at a good dinner party.

Mei's thoughts on the main: Akillian fish… hmm that's quite hard to get right. If it's smoked I'm afraid I won't eat it.

Mei's thoughts on the dessert: Akillian fruit crumble would be wonderful! Not to fattening for a dessert which is always great!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Okay then, well now you know everyone's thoughts lets get to the cooking! We visited D'jok at his house at 1pm to check what's happening.

D'jok stood in the kitchen at his oven, a fresh Akillian fish lay in front of him on a cutting board, "Okay so basically I've skipped the starter because I can just put that together on the night, so I'm just going to start cutting the fish now," D'jok explained to the camera.

"Did you catch the fish yourself?" A camera man asked (it's part of his job to keep the show interesting)

D'jok scratched his bright red hair, "Err no but I'm sure that's not much of a problem," He replied and smothered the Akillian fish in oil.

After that he put it in the oven and told the camera that he would leave it there for one hour then reheat it again when the time comes.

"Okay now I'm going to start the Akillian fruit crumble," D'jok explained.

"What are the fruits you're using?" A camera asked again.

"Oh well I'm going to put two fruits in the crumble because…well…Akillian only has two fruits," told D'jok. "the first I'm putting in is Akillian Grapefruit which has a special taste to it because of the always cold air, and secondly I'll put in a fruit only grown on Akillian called a Aartegium fruit which was only discovered in a small cave about fifteen years ago,"

D'jok took a pastry base and mashed the fruit's up before filling the base up with it. He then covered the base in dough and made a nice pattern on the top. "Presentation is always needed, even if you are going to cut it up and ruin it!" D'jok laughed and put the fruit crumble in a different part of the oven.

"Again that should be done in about half an hour and I'll reheat when the time comes," D'jok said with a grin.

If you would like to cook any of D'jok's meals then the recipe is on the GALACTIK COME DINE WITH ME website.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Okay so that's how D'jok cooked it, onto to the night where D'jok is waiting nervously in a black tuxedo holding a tray of crackers with cheese.

A doorbell is heard so D'jok placed his tray of crackers on a table and went to answer the door. At the door stood Sinedd with a look of what seemed to be disgust on his face.

"Hello Sinedd," D'jok said pleasantly.

Sinedd did not greet him back but simply made a remark about D'jok's front path. "Your front path is really dirty you know,"

D'jok bit his lip with anger more than embarrassment, "Well that doesn't really matter at the moment, come in; I have some crackers with cheese on the table,"

Sinedd nodded and walked past him to the front room where D'jok left the crackers, Sinedd picked one up and began to nibble on one.

After five minutes of awkward silence Mei knocked on the door. D'jok opened it to see her there wearing a stunning red dress.

"Aren't you looking good!" D'jok smiled and gave Mei a hug and two kisses on the cheek.

"Hi D'jok! am I the first one here?" Mei asked and looked over his shoulder to see Sinedd nibbling a cracker and looking with disgust at a portrait of a sailor on a boat.

"No Sinedd's here already," D'jok replied which made Sinedd look quickly to the door at the mention of his name.

Mei walked towards Sinedd and picked up a cracker, "Hey Sinedd how are you?" Mei smiled and tried to be friendly.

Sinedd surprisingly complied, "I'm fine, I was just looking at this ugly picture; what about you?"

"I'm fine too thanks, err what makes this picture so ugly?" Mei answered and asked as D'jok strolled into the room.

"Well it's just a sailor… no an ugly sailor! A ugly sailor on a boat, I just don't think it's very nice," Sinedd answered and flicked the man's face.

D'jok slapped Sinedd's hand away, "That's my grandpa your flicking Sinedd!"

Sinedd hissed in annoyance, "Okay sorry, seriously that's rude D'jok,"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

D'jok's room

Sinedd: That's so rude, It just proves my suspicions right about D'jok being a bad host!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Finally Woowamboo arrived at the door with a massive grin spread across his face. "Hello D'jok how are you?" he asked.

"I'm fine thanks, please come in," D'jok smiled back and shook his hand.

He led Woowamboo into the living room where Sinedd and Mei stood eating crackers, "Okay if you want to go sit down at the table which is just through the left there," D'jok said and pointed to the left of them. "Or of course you can go explore my house; I'll just be in the kitchen re-heating the fish,"

And with that D'jok bustled into the kitchen leaving Woowamboo, Sinedd and Mei. After greeting Woowamboo the three headed upstairs to explore D'jok's house.

They arrived in the upstairs landing with two doors to the left of them and one door to the right. "Quite a small house isn't it," Sinedd said with an evil smile.

"Well it's bigger than mine, mines just more roomy," Woowamboo laughed.

"Well come on you two let's go into the one on the right.," Mei said and entered the door.

They where all hit by the smell of toilet cleaner as they entered the bathroom. D'jok's bathroom had a toilet, a small white shower and a very dirty sink.

"Hmm, D'jok's house isn't very clean is it?" Sinedd said and accidentally let slip another evil smile.

"What do you mean?" Mei questioned and peered into the shower.

"Did you not see the front path?" Sinedd laughed.

"At least he has a front path!" Woowamboo said trying to lighten the mood.

Mei took her head out of the shower, "Wasn't that bad," she shrugged.

Sinedd snarled at the fact no-one agreed, "Well I wouldn't be able to eat here everyday like he does"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

D'jok's room

Mei: I think Sinedd is just picking at everything to make D'jok's party seem bad.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The three left the bathroom and went into a plain room with green wallpaper. "Probably a spare room," Mei shrugged and they all left for the last remaining room.

They all entered D'jok's room and began poking around, opening draws, moving piles of clothes.

"Not very organised," Sinned remarked but Mei just rolled her eyes and carried on looking around.

After two minutes the three were called down by D'jok and they all settled in down by the table. D'jok brought in a lovely smoked Akillian snow fish on a plate and gave everyone a slice.

They all sat down and dug in except for Mei. "What's wrong Mei?" D'jok asked.

Mei winced a bit, "Is this smoked? Did you grill it a bit?"

D'jok sat in thought for a moment, "Do you not like smoked fish?"

Mei shook her head, "Sorry no,"

D'jok laughed a bit, "No don't worry this isn't smoked!"

Mei looked unsure, so did Sinedd but Woowamboo wasn't listening in and was busy eating his food with delight.

"Are you sure D'jok?" Sinedd butted in.

"Yeah I'm sure!" D'jok lied.

Mei apologised and said she couldn't eat it anyway but Sinedd didn't give up. "Your lying," Sinedd smiled.

D'jok couldn't help but smile back, "No… no I'm not,"

Sinedd looked at his food then back at D'jok, "You sure?" he smiled again.

D'jok laughed, "Stop being stupid Sinedd!"

Eventually Sinedd gave up and continued to eat his fish.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

D'jok's room

D'jok: ………………………………..........................................................ha….ahaha…ahahaha!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

D'jok left the room and entered the kitchen, "Okay so I'm just gonna serve up the fruit crumble now, Woowamboo told me he is now in love with Akillian food so let's hope this goes down well," D'jok told the camera and crossed his fingers.

D'jok brought the beautifully crisp pastry into the dining room and placed it on the table, "Tadaa,"

A chorus of 'ooooooooooooooohs' came from the guests.

D'jok cut the crumble up and gave everyone a piece in their bowls. As everyone took in to their food Mei asked a question. "So D'jok did you make the pastry yourself?"

D'jok nearly choked on his food but managed to swallow it down, "What?"

Mei sneered slightly, "I said did you make the pastry yourself?"

Again Sinedd stopped eating and listened in but Woowamboo was oblivious and ate his food like there was no tomorrow.

"Err yes, yes I did," D'jok lied almost confidently this time.

"Oh really that's good!" Mei smiled and began to eat her food.

Sinedd glared at D'jok but gave up after D'jok ignored him.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

D'jok's room

Woowamboo: five stars, I would pay for that anytime

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

After everyone had finished D'jok cleared away the table and gave his goodbyes to everyone, he sat down and sighed.

"I think I did quite well, and I reckon they bought my lies…. Ahahahahahaha!" D'jok remarked then burst out in un-stoppable laughter.

Sinedd's overall verdict: It was okay, however the house was messy and I'm sure he lied about the fish, and overall the food wasn't that great so I'm giving D'jok a ……..three.

Mei's overall verdict: It was good night, the starter was fine but I just couldn't eat the main, even if it wasn't smoked it still seemed that way. The dessert was tasty and he was a good host so I'm going to give D'jok a………….six.

Woowamboo's overall verdict: simply delicious, I needn't say more! …………………nine.

So there you have it, D'jok's night was fairly successful, overall D'jok got a score of 18 which isn't too hard to beat… but it isn't easy either. Read next time to see how Sinedd's night is on the next chapter of GALACTIK COME DINE WITH ME.
