 A nightmare Meal
◦ 1. My wife doesn’t like cooking very much. She enjoys eating out in restaurants – the more
expensive, the better. So I often take her out for meals. It costs me a fortune, but it keeps her
happy.

◦ 2. One evening last month, we went to an expensive sea-food restaurant in our local town. We
ordered our food and the waiter brought our meal. We had just started eating when a young
couple came in with two small children and a baby.

◦ 3. The family sat down at the table next to us. Immediately the baby started crying and the
children started running around. But the parents didn’t make any effort to control them.

◦ 4. My wife put down her fork and stared at the couple angrily. ‘This restaurant is just like
McAli’s!’ she said in a loud voice. The waiter, who was near our table at the time, looked very
surprised. He went back into the kitchen. Five minutes later, the chef came out, looking very
upset.

◦ 5. He marched over to our table angrily. ‘How dare you compare my cooking to McAli’s food,’
he said. ‘I am a top-class chef and this is a top-class restaurant. I have never been so insulted in
all my life!’

◦ 6. I tried to explain that it was all a misunderstanding, but he wouldn’t listen. He looked as if he
was going to hit me. So we paid our bill quickly and left.
