QUICK EXIT From the kitchen came a very odd smell Menu was in Thai so I couldn't tell Pointed and asked what is that The waiter said its grilled rat Was outta there like a bat outta hell... EYE EYE Went out with some friends for beer and meat pies Asked the waiter to make mine a surprise Well I took a huge bite And nearly died of fright The filling was made of fish and cows eyes... ALL YOU CAN EAT Went to a cafe where all you can eat Thought I'd go large and have me a nice treat Carrots, meat and some leeks Then I heard the squeaks Saw the food move and went white as a sheet... MEAL DEAL Why do restaurants sell meals that are cheap Thought I'd go in check one out take a peep I didn't like what I saw Food undercooked and quite raw And lamb kebabs may not be from a sheep... BURGER AND FRIES For fries and burger I was in the mood I went in but quickly went off my food I'll tell you the reason why The waiter's wore just a tie And nothing else they were totally nude... WHATS IN A STEW (DONT ASK) In restaurants never order a stew What they put in to it would make you spew Scraps from the day before Some scrapings off the floor And some other bits you'll find hard to chew... LOW LIGHTING Low lighting creates an ambient mood Lovers taken out to eat and be wooed They don't want you to sue And you would if you knew How kitchen staff really prepared your food... (All fiction, I hope) Written on 18th September 2020.
