I'm not surprised.

I hadn't seen it before, but I assumed it was something they'd gleaned from the internet. I ate there once, and have no reason to expect originality from them. :P

I used to meet several ladies for a very wet lunch.    Since I drove some 15 miles to join them, my drink of choice was a double espresso over ice.    After about 4, I would begin to twitch.   I switched to bitters and seltzer, pleasant and not so jangling.

Basic translation:

lunch: Thank you

me: What?

lunch: Say it again

I think we should spend our down time inventing a dish worthy of the name Gaelic Bread. It wouldn’t have to involve kale, would it?
