Mange Bien!!


(Distinguished graying french waiter):

Eh Bien, bonjour Monsieur Etoile!!! 
Will you be having the peas and rice this fine morning?
Very well!


The temperature of the room, just as you prefer, Monsieur!


To the breaking of your fast, a votre sante!


why yes, it does taste of the spring morning in Caen!!!
My mother lives -- of course, Monsieur. You remember, how kind!
I will tell her your asked after her petit chien, Olivier.


Interesting, Monsieur...I have heard that a slight nomming of one's own finger does accent the taste of the peas....
I should try it, too?
Well, if you insist....I.....well zut alors!!!!
Even more delicieuse!!


It is not so frequent that a diner here asks me to eat with him, you must understand:
I am so honored and your company is so 
charmant!


Mon Dieu!! Look at the time! You will be late for your appointment for storytime
a la bibliotheque!!


Please allow this to be on the house -
Non!!
Monsieur, we insist.


But...erm....be so kind as to leave the napkin undigested, Monsieur Etoile...
Oui. It tastes of la Mer et le soleil. Oui.
Brilliant as always, magnifique!!!

Merci Beaucoup pour tout!!!

Au revoirs!!!
