"This place is one of New York's best-kept secrets."

'We don't 'skimp' on the pour, sir; we're just generous with the glass.'

'It's my favorite.'

'As a surprise I thought I'd give the new cookbook a try tonight.'

"The soup of the day is pineapple with a hint of rum."

"....And then chuck the whole lot in the dustbin and phone for a take-away."

And then in Italy. . . "But I really don't like bubblegum gelato."

"Was there a photo in the recipe book? I'd love to see what it's meant to look like."

"The chef ran out of the shiitake-infused sweet potato au gratin, so he substituted hash browns."

"We succumbed to your hype."

'I told you not to order the chocolate cream surprise.'

"So, I went into this fancy new butcher shop and they were selling ostrich of all things!"

"Before I die, I’d like to eat tofu."

"Mas agua for the gringos?"

'I know how you like Fusion cooking, so try this - macaroni and jelly!'

'Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday you like beans.' 'Now you don't.'

'You don't look well.' 'Is it something I ate, expensive food?.'
