Man Eating Minimalist Meal

All Natural Nothing

"Not to mention the park view."

"I don't bake, I don't cook, but I make one kick-ass vinaigrette."

''I'm totally committed to simplifying my life. No more shitake jalapeno pesto.'

'Some joined up thinking is what we need.'

'Can I thank everybody for their attention, I think we're finished.'

"My compliments to the can opener."

At This Restaurant, There Are Only Two Dishes on the Menu and They Both Suck

Vegetarian Restaurant: Choose Your Own Cabbage

"Can you just recommend something? Neither of us can possibly focus long enough to read a menu."

"It's natural, vegan organic, no additives, preservatives or cooking."

"So we actually can agree on something...rolled sleeves, loose ties, and no jackets!"

'...and the property comes with a fully fitted kitchen'

Restaurant: Come & Get It! Bland Cuisine - 'Just plain food, good, but nothing fancy.'

"And the kitchen is ideal for people who like to eat out."

"I see here it's been quite a while since your last performance review."

'They use paper plates.'

'I warned you...I can only cook two dishes: beef stroganoff and cheese cake.'

"No wonder he's so skinny - he eats like a bird."

"Never mind the cost of living crisis, dear, you still need your 5-a-day."

'You don't need to worry Jean, he's a very simple cook.'

"If it says to add water, and I'm the one who adds it, I'm cooking."

'Too many choices to make up your mind? No problem. We also have abbreviated menus.'

"Let me see if I have it correctly, sir. To hell with the appetizer. A chopped sirloin that damn well better be rare. No goddam relish tray. Who cares which salad dressing, since they all taste like sludge?"

"Nothing for me, thanks."

'I never understood kitchen tables. Why do you think I gave you a lap?'

Posh restaurant - 'We'll have the sandwiches.'

'We don't have menus, sir - the chef thinks they're counterproductive.'

"Just one menu for us, please. We don't want to overeat."

"This could have just been an email."
