Menu Decipherer Pillows

"I can't have anything that's a food."

'Of course you can't have the chef's salad. What will the chef eat?'

"The little sad faces next to some items mean they don't taste very good."

"‘Extra vile old ox’? No, sir – it stands for ‘extra virgin olive oil.’"

"How would you like your soy protein, mixed tocopherols and methylcellulose patty?"

"That Pink Slime I keep hearing about; is that a hamburger or the dessert?"

'What do you say we throw caution to the wind and order something we can't pronounce?'

"Could you slowly describe the Chef's Surprise again? I have a good imagination, but not that good!"

'I want to make a positive environmental statement - What do you suggest I order?'

"Who ordered the double chocolate parfait with a cherry on top?"

"I know, I know, every time we come here, I swear I'm going to try something new, but I always end up getting the same thing."

As you like it - 'Waiter, chicken with watercress please' 'I'm sorry sir we haven't any chicken left ... but if you wish I bring you a larger portion of watercress...'

"I'll have the Investigator's Special."

'I think I'll go home and eat'

"Is the asparagus farm-raised or wild-caught?"

Party time.
