The Theory and Practice of Lunch |
Pud or cheese? It has to be the sweet course: you never hear a couple ordering one piece of cheese and two knives. A menu bound in simulated pigskin like a nonaggression treaty between two very minor nations = a pretentious restaurant to be avoided. Crammed full of witty lines to make the committed luncher punch the air in delighted recognition. Almost as good as the thing itself. (Tony Pratt - bwl 64 Spring 2012) |
