Whats on the Menu!!

This weekend, bro's wife (sil) & I took our respective kids out to their favorite hang out. After they were done with their games, we sat down at one of the food stalls & we placed our order. The kids were all charged & wanted play 'restaurant-restaurant'. If you have a girl child, you can very well imagine the decibel levels these two 5yr old girls would have reached in order to sell this idea.

Sil is normally sportive about these things. So, she agreed to goto their restaurant & place an order for lunch. But she also had an hidden agenda of testing their mettle this time. She ordered the toughest sounding dish she could find in the menu card handed over to her. I don't remember the dish. It was some fried non-veg with sauted whatever in whichever sauce.

The kids were all happy for their first order & enthusiastically started working on the dish. The dish was ready in a few minutes & they placed this steamy dish in front of sil. Yes .... it was all imaginary cooking in imaginary kitchen with imaginary dishes.

As soon as the dist was place in front of her, she asks, "What is this?"


With an 'are you nuts' & innocent expression, pat came the reply : "What you ordered!"
