瞞天過海的菜單

A man dirning with a friend explained the peculiarities of the restaurant they were in:"The waiters never admit they don"t have something. They"ll take your order. for a slice of sun and too away as if they mean to get it...then they"ll come back and say they just ran out.」

一位和朋友吃飯的男士解釋他們在飯館裡吃飯的怪現象時說:「服務員從未承認過他們沒有什麼萊。假如你想要一份太陽，他們也會拿著菜單離去，好像真能給你弄來似的。然後，他們回來說這道菜剛賣完。」

為了證明這一點，我說:「請來一份恐龍。」

To prove his point，he said to the waiter,「The dinosaur，please.」

「好的，先生，」服務員回答說:「您要的恐龍是做得嫩點還是老點兒的?」

「Yes，sir，「answered the waiter.」And how would you like it cooked?"

「老點兒的。」

"Well done!"

服務員離開了，又很快回來了。「對不起，先生，我們的恐龍菜剛賣完。」

The waiter left and returned quickly.「I"m sorry, sir，but we"ve just run out of a dinosaur.」

「什麼?」顧客氣憤地說:「沒有恐龍?」

" What?" said the diner with feigned disappointment."No dinosaur?"

那服務員低聲地說:「我們的確還剩一些。」他顯得作常自信的樣子。「但恐龍肉有點兒不太鮮了，所以我們還是不給您上這道菜的好。」

The waiter lowered his voice. "Well，we do have some left，「he whispered confidentially,"...but it"s not very fresh and I won"t serve it!」
