It's ACTUALLY in Buckinghamshire, about 14 miles from me. I was there just the other week whilst Mrs. N. had an appointment. Lovely place, but I don't recall reading or hearing about this in the local rag.

Terrific watching the kid's reaction, but a minor point; it isn't in Italy. All the signs are in English, there are no cops with uniforms like that in Italy (especially with the word police on them) and lastly, no self-respecting Italian, regardless of age, would use a knife to cut spaghetti.

Eat spaghetti with a fork and spoon and call sauce gravy ? lol
I know that " gravy " is a regional thing in NY / NJ and " pasta " was a actually introduced by yuppies in around 1985 . Until then it was either , " What are we having tonight , macaroni or spaghetti ? " . lol
Italian here too , grew up in one of the Italian sections of Newark . Great days they were , yep , the good old days .

Let's not start the sauce vs gravy argument here, but by definition in the dictionary, it's sauce. I always say who cares, call it what you want, as long as it tastes good. :D

Now that's entertainment! Better than mindlessly staring at a cell phone.

That was great! I'm surprised they get to use a knife and a fork. Here all I see are sporks.
