Where's Jonny? Care to dine with me? You would think that 11 years of daily food tasting for a living might put me off?......au contraire! Chomp away with me across 6 continents. Seduced like a bloodhound to the scent of good food, I anticipate the misty waft of steaming broths, the satisfying crunch of mudbugs and the vibrant aroma of freshly pulverised lemongrass. Buon appetito

As JJ and I sat waiting for our Thai salads to be served on the long sandy beach at Koh Lanta, we noticed that a woman had not been served.

Her ensuing frustration and our amusement inspired this song.  (must be sung to the tune of Enrique Eglaisias' "I could be your Hero"

Would you wait; While the rest of us ate?

Were you clear; When the waiter drew near?

Would you raise a hand; Did he understand?

Your chicken Phad Thai just failed to appear.

-------------------------------------------

(Chorus)

I could be your lamb with gravy

With reduction of red wine

You would crave my taste forever

Serve me with a sprig of thyme

----------------------------------------

Would you go; As the order was slow?

The sea view was great; Yet you still salivate

Are they so laid back, The chef got the sack?

Your senses begin to berate......

---------------------------------------------

(Chorus)

I could be your jelly baby

or your passionfruit brulee

Every spoon would last forever

I would take your breath away.
