The Angry Dieter

So tonight we went out for birthday dinner at some restaurant in the ass end of perth (canningvale) you need a cut lunch and a water bag in case you get hungry on the way to the restaurant..

highlights.. well..

• queuing to make your order, that was interesting, and the queue for the drinks orders;
• the MASSIVE plates of food. My goodness no wonder australian’s are getting fat. The amount of food I had on my plate was enough for 2 dinners and possibly lunch;
• the lady sitting on the table to the left of us wearing a chiffon top, which was ripped at the back of the shoulder, and hipster jeans showing plumber’s crack, and the nice tummy roll…
• the fact that she was celebrating her 40th birthday.. can anyone say silk purse and sow’s ear?;
• the irritating happy birthday music every time a cake came out and the clapping by all 200 people and singing happy birthday to random people.;
• how many people are born on april fools day anyways?;
• going for coffee at fast eddies and pretending to 3 different waiters that we hadn’t ordered yet;
• asking for cookies every time a waiter dropped our drinks off:

“oh thanks, do you have cookies?”
“no we have cakes”
“oh, so you don’t have cookies?”
“no we do have muffins”
“OK so you’re saying you don’t have cookies?”
“no, we do not have cookies”

Eventually, they stopped serving our table, we took the hint, paid and left. Impressive that they were upselling their muffins and cakes, but we wanted cookies.. Good for a laugh though.

now I go sleep, have work in the morning, and there’s no bus into the city until after 8.30am from where I live and I start at 8.30am. stupid public transport.
