Round the World to see how far it is - 06

 

Plat de Jour

 

Ackee and saltfish or Sautéed Reindeer,

Shopska Salad or Pot-au-Feu?

Whatever you choose, wherever you are -

High end retail or noisy street bazaar

Temptation will ambush your stomach.

 

Brigadeiro or Baklava,

Maple taffy or Po’e?

Your sweet tooth reminds you who is boss,

Drowning in syrup, blissfully surrender - then tooth loss

“I can resist anything except temptation.”

 

Chef’s daily special or Dish of the Day

Carte Blanche or menu à la carte.

Every corner of the planet has its own special flavours,

Served with pride, unique plat de jour, tastebud savours.

Though Chef is tempted to serve it again tomorrow.

 

After all we over-ordered on the broccoli.

Pragmatism. C'est la vie.
