In Florence (31th Dec. 2008)
For lunch that day, the four of us ate at a bistro near the office. I had a pasta dish with stonfish. It was rare and delicious, with a texture similar to crab. The meal came with a salada dished up on a big plate and coffee, all for 10 euros. However, the female owner of the bistro said she had overcharged us and reduced the price to 7 euros. We all agreed that we should sometimes come back to this bistro.
この日のランチは、事務所の近くのビストロで４人で食べた。ぼくはおごぜのパスタを食べた。珍しくておいしかった。カニの食感だった。大きな皿に目いっぱい盛られたサラダに、コーヒーがついて１０ユーロ。しかし、店の女性のオーナーは取りすぎたと言って７ユーロに負けてくれた。これからは時々この店で食べようと皆で話した。

I had a pasta dish with stonefish.
Or:
→ I had a stonefish pasta dish.
This version makes it clearer that the stonefish was an ingredient *in* the pasta.
例えば：
I had a tomato pasta with bread.
→ Means pasta plus bread (別々）
I had an olive pasta
→ means the olives were in the pasta
I had a pasta with olives
→ It could mean either (a) pasta with olives mixed in, or (b) pasta with olives on the side. It's unclear so we have to work it out from the context.
It was rareunusual/exotic and delicious, with a texture similar to crab.
The meal came with a salada dishmixed/table salad, served up on a big plate, and (some) coffee, all for 10 euros.
However, the female owner of the bistro said she had overcharged us and reduced the price to 7 euros.
We all agreed that we should sometimes come back to this bistro (again sometime).

Thank you for corrections. It was "stonefish included in the pasta". We cannot find the stonefish pasta in Japan.
