"The menu just says fried fish, but may I give you a more compelling, surprisingly lyrical description?"

"Monsieur, si vous plaît. I'm sure I ordered the fusilli and not the Fusilier."

"I have no idea what, hic, went wrong. I did everything, hic, Mario Batali said."

"Waiter! Two of your finest menus!"

'Er . . . and a fork for me...'

'Eight years old, huh? If it's so good, why didn't somebody drink it eight years ago?'

"Compliments to the chef! Pass it on."

'Waiter...my entrée fell over.'

"I read somewhere that truffles are a gateway fungus."

"Is the MSG local?"

"Which wine would you pair with the complimentary bread and butter?"

'Dang! I never now if the sommelier is messing with me.'

'Is this still America?'

'It's the essence of springtime. You're really enjoying it.'

'So it's the Mumm's Cordon Rouge, '98 Pouilly-Fuisse, '86 Chateau Margaux, and the '92 Barsac - would you like any food?'

"How sweet, your hand is trembling."

'Pigs feet, sir?' 'Are they pickled?'

"You have a big check because you had a big wine."
