AN ANCIENT SAILOR IN PARIS


Grade Level of Vocabulary



      ANCIENT SAILOR IN PARIS ...!

    An ancient  friend of mine, Wilson
    veteran sailor from Mormac Co
   landed in Paris once
   and when lunch time came,
   he and 4 hungry sailors
   entered   a bistro
   which seemed to be simpler than
   the "complicated" restaurants
   from Paris ... yes because they had
   suffered the day before entering
   in one of these ... Wilson who
   scratched something in french
   risked asking:
  - Le menu, pouvez vous dire ...!?
  The waiter scratched himself a little and
   said calmly ...
  - Oui, monsieur, pour aujourdui
     nous avons: nous avons foi Gras, Coq au vin ...
     Escargots, Blanquette de veau, Quiche Lorraine
     Nuggets comme aperitif ....
- Arrete, s'arrete ... stop, you can stop ...
    come here and called with the hand ...
   "Is there any food ...!" ???, and left
    for another day of hunger ...


 Ps:The question" is there any food here?" it's pertinent because for those hungry sailors what the waiter said was not food ...
