Dining's Out

New place
Sounds ace

For lunch
Or brunch

Meets Dom
And Tom  

Got new
Menu

Reveals
Good deals

Endorse
Three course

Deals viewed
Choose food

Veg soup
Vile gloop

Tastes off
Can’t scoff

I heave
Food leave

Await
Mains plate

Dead fly
On pie

There’s lice
In rice

Burnt fries
No lies!

Screams loud
Draws crowd

Staff look
for cook

He’s drunk
As skunk

My pud
Not good

On pear
Dog hair

Gets bill
Big thrill

It’s free
For me

For friend’s
Full spends

They'll pay
Their way

Won't tip
Get’s gyp

Waiter
Hater!

Return …
we’ll spurn!
