A whimsical look at fine dining in the world's gastronomic capital, by Your Humble Correspondent.
Food without memory is just digestion
Stop forking around!
5 forks Forking mad if you don't go
4 forks One of life's forking delights
3 forks Well worth what you'll fork out
2 forks Forking tradesman-like
1 fork See Rude about Food

An Epitaph
Je veux que la mort frappe
Au milieu d'un grand repas
Qu'on m'enterre sous la nappe
Entre quatre large plats,
Et que sur ma tombe on metteC
ette courte inscription:
"Ci-git le premier poete
Mort d'une indigestion"
I pray that death may strike me
In the middle of a large meal
I wish to be buried under the tablecloth
Between four large dishes
And I desire that this short inscription
Should be engraved on my tombstone:
"Here lies the first poet
Ever to die of indigestion"
Marc Antoine Desaugiers
1772-1827
