Do you serve the bolognese on top of the spaghetti, or do you make a hole in the middle of the spaghetti for it?

On top. Hole in the middle would never have occurred to me.
Hole in the middle.
Neither: We mix it up so the spaghetti soaks in more of the flavor of the sauce.
Well, yeah, that's what I'd more often do, but might put it on top. I wonder if the hole in the middle is a British/Irish thing.Quote:

Wankers call it spagbol.
Yeah but when you're serving it it looks nicer separated out than all mixed together. The person eating the meal of course will usually then go and mix up everything on the plate.Quote:

Start it at the top for a better presentation, and let the diner mix it up if he or she wishes.
We always had everything all mixed up in the pot. Presentation was never much of a concern.
Communist!!!
Psst, Myglaren - see post #7.
Yep, that's where I nicked the picture from.
Hmmm...I usually serve the pasta, then plop the sauce on top. Never thought of making a hole for it first!
It's almost worth suggesting that everyone swap their usual method for the opposite one and then come back and say what they think.
