Has lasagne versus lasagna been done yet?

Dinner for the evening meal is posh isn't it?

I wish Tony's Café in Chapter St, Pimlico (just on the other side of Vauxhall Bridge Road not far from Pimlico tube) was in Brixton. Their lasagne and chips is in my top 3 of all time. There, but only there, I have their coleslaw as well. ALL ON THE SAME PLATE, OU!

Coleslaw is evil

What is the evening meal if it's not dinner? It's not (incorrectly) interchangeable with 'lunch' is it? No one, but no one, has lunch at 9pm

I should mention the other two I suppose. It used to be in the Astral Café, just near the Coroner's Court on Horseferry Road, but they've sold the business on and it's no longer a lovely old Italian woman who made the pasta fresh herself. Also the Phoenix used to do a great lasagne and chips (their lasagne & Moussaka used to be made by a woman who lives round the corner from me). I haven't had lasagne there for ages so I don't know what it's like now.
Historically (as in way back during the 1980s) the very very best was in Val de Taro on the Camberwell New Road, made by a lovely woman called Nita but she retired long ago and it's not been a café for a long time. Hers was the lasagne and chips and not in the running for my top 3 as hers was the pinnacle of lasagne and against which I've judged every other lasagne. Her stuffed lambs hearts were the pinnacle of good cheap comforting café food. You just don't see offal much in cafés any more

Like bunny chow? Are you a South African?

Bunny chow is the only good thing to happen as a result of apartheid.

Absolutely. Packed lunch people. It's a packed lunch. Not dinner, lunch.

I usually have my dinner after 2 actually. It is also known as lunch by some people.

Sunday lunch is usually served until late afternoon.

And dinner is in the evening only.
We can all make up stuff that isn't true, can't we?

I love that place.
I certainly am not,Kiwi.Bunny lunches were the alternative to fish and chips and dreadfully correct food.It will date me that F&C were 9d and you'd be hard pressed to eat them all.(and we lived in a puddle)

If there a list or formula to help people spot such words?
I'm guessing monocle could be such a word if it's based on phonetics.
