It's all Greek to me.

"So... what do you recomend?" Dave was asked, for the seventh time that minute.

"I really don't know," he replied, trying to keep his cool.

What was so hard to understand? Dave was half Greek and his dad was the Greek Chef who cooked at THIS Greek restaurant. Why would people imediately assume from this that Dave might know which food was best? Truth was, he'd probably eaten less Greek food in his life than anyone else at the table. He probably spoke less Greek too.

"So... what do you suggest?"

'AAH!'

In the end they ordered the banquet, after which the food just kept coming and coming. It was endless and nice, a delightful combination. Half-way through, Macca turned to Dave and said, "Tell your dad he's beaten me, I can't finish any more." The others gave in one by one after that, each very satisfactorily stuffed.

Suddenly Aline started shouting and bouncing around excitedly. There was Dave's daddy, off to the toilet. 'Drat,' thougth Dave. He had planned to ask to see the chef at the end of the meal, without anyone knowing his true identity, bwahahaha. Even the table had been booked under the name Mr Mathews. 'Oh well, better early than never.'

Dave's daddy was happy to see his "cheeky monkey", but it seemed Dave's dad's boss was even happier. "You look just like your dad!! Everyone come see!! Little Vasili!!!" The rest of his father's work mate's gave him a look of absolute "so?", except one kind waitress who asked innocently, "Is he your grandfather?"

And yet he wasn't excited enough to offer a discount.

After the meal came the Greek dancing and belly dancing. Smashing plates and setting fire to things, the Greek's are truly cultured. Dave couldn't be sure if the boss had had a private word or if it was just coincedence, but it turned out that Dave's table was picked to all get up and dance, with Khany going to the extreme and wearing pretty much full belly dancing suit. Twas highly entertaining, even if Dave's father refused to join in. Still, it was great to see him.

A wonderful meal, a wonderful dance, a wonderful night.

"..but the chicken was a little dry, dad."
