Re: bangers and fries

I once went to a birthday celebration in Greek Street. Along the guests was someone who had just returned from Hong Kong. He was delegated to order.

He told us the conversation with the waiter went like this:

-Please take this away and bring me the Cantonese menu.

-English people do not like Chinese food.

-These English people do like Chinese food.

-English people would not understand the menu.

-Have you noticed I am speaking to you in Cantonese?

The dinner lasted three hours and was superb.
