Guy on the next table in the pub is telling his date about a fancy restaurant he's been to. Apparently it has a cheese waiter and 30 cheeses.

[erased_citizen@cupoftea.social]

@alicemcalicepants in fairness, this does sound like a good restaurant. Unless the date is lactose intolerant.

[keefeglise@mastodonapp.uk]

@alicemcalicepants That is where the date should have been!

@alicemcalicepants try and semaphore "do you need help?" to her with your eyebrows

[hailsandales@metalhead.club]

@alicemcalicepants how dairy do that

[aliide@mstdn.social]

@alicemcalicepants I would actually be very interested in hearing all about this

[rogerbw@discordian.social]

@alicemcalicepants Have YOU let cheeses into your life?

[paul_ipv6@infosec.exchange]

@alicemcalicepants

a cheese waiter? waiting on 30 cheeses?

what do cheeses eat when they're at a fancy restaurant? :)

[gilester45@twit.social]

@alicemcalicepants I'm listening.

@alicemcalicepants "Hi, is Angela here please?" 😃

@alicemcalicepants I think "The Orrery" in London used to do something of the sort. Not been there for a couple of years. The problem was we never managed to get that far.
ATM closed for refurbishment.

These days we don't go to high end places much as they tend to do stupid "tasting menus"* instead of a la carte.

*9 or 13 courses of blobs of food that you won't like at least a third of. Aimed squarely at expense account diners or those who want to show off/post on Insta rather than *eat*.

@afewbugs @alicemcalicepants the only help I'd need is getting up after eating 30 cheeses

[alicemcalicepants@ohai.social]

*Alice thinks up a punchline several hours later, again*

So anyway, he asks what cheeses you like and makes recommendations based on that, so you can dine on

Your own
Personal
Cheeses

@alicemcalicepants i don't know the rest of the lyrics but thanks for the earworm nonetheless

[antjbro@mastodonapp.uk]

@alicemcalicepants and at Christmas the portion sizes are reduced because it’s all about the little baby cheeses?

[paul_ipv6@infosec.exchange]

@RogerBW @alicemcalicepants

is life without cheese even possible? :)

[oblomov@sociale.network]

@alicemcalicepants if I'm to trust the Fediverse on this, there would be a nonzero amount of people who would be swoon by this kind of talk. If the restaurant mentioned also has a bread waiter and a large number of breads, his changes would go up massively.
