“Specials Tonight”
Max Schwaner
Good evening
Our specials tonight include
A butter-nut squash soup
With an Irish liqueur crème fraiche.
Yes, there is cream in the soup.
Panko fried tiger prawns
Will be the salad special
Served with an orange-sesame
And a Thai-nut peanut sauce.
No, you should not order this
If you are allergic to nuts.
The Mesquite Special tonight
Is my personal favorite.
A breaded veal paillard
Served with steamed arrugula
And tomato risotto.
The lemon-butter feurre-blanc sauce
Is a perfect accent
To this meat special
And may I recommend a Merlot?
Yes, we have Budweiser.
Yes, we can make a hamburger.
Our burger beef is imported
From New Zealand
Or rather: Middle Earth.
We serve with caramelized onions
Apple-smoked bacon
Smoked mozzarella
Grain Dijon mustard
And French fries.
Yes, we have freedom fries.
Very funny.
We shall put the cheese
The onions, the bacon, and the mustard
On the side
If you don’t want them
Don’t fucking eat them.
