'Have you tried our home-made wine?'

"I love this place—its food, its ambience, and its political goals."

"I know you didn't order the snails, sir. They're complimentary with the salad."

'..and we thank thee for these bio-engineered vegetables..'

'Enjoy your meal! We grow everything ourselves!'

'Sorry sir, we've run out of parmesan cheese.'

"Oh, boy, hard-core sugar!"

"I'm not weird I'm a 'person of weirdness'."

'On the contrary... I'm too tough for the steak!'
