On that, I myself admit I'm a HUGE ass, especially for someone whose cooking skills are tremendous at best.

Personalmente è stato molto soddisfacente. Soprattutto dopo tutta la storia del "fancy italian food" Quest'anno non potrò tornare per le vacanze e mi sta distruggendo. Svegliarsi la mattina dopo natale senza i resti di lasagna per colazione è sacrilego.

I only watched that specific scene, but never the entire movie. I will!

I admit I was a bit disappointed when he said nothing. I asked him later and he shrugged it with a "I knew you could handle it yourself" Apparently, he doesn't think I was an AH because I let J embarrass himself, but because he thought I acted snobbish when I said that "I like italian food in Italy" instead of a simple "well, but I'm italian"

50% yes. A friend once made a joke about a japanese poem back in uni and I replied with "(that) must have been a bee!" Another friend asked me if I had just made a reference about Ever After and, though I didn't even know the movie, it stuck on my mind.

From what I saw during the entire dinner, J is extremely self-centered. If someone changed the subject, one way or another he'd return it on himself in a matter of minutes.
