THE TASTING MENU



The Tasting Menu
was slapped all over the dining trays,
so, so much for freedom.
We did not want to sit for three hours wading
our way through exotic foods
and burping.

Our waitress was nice, though,
if men avoided catching her eye...
Was she on minimum?
Her mini mum  was there -
not PC to call her dwarf.
I think she beefed up the menu.
