Guess Who Ate The Tofu Burger?

The girl was very pleased that she got her own set of plates and cutlery that looked just like ours, i.e. they didn't come in colorful plastic. We read out her menu, and she stated firmly she wanted burger. Really? How about pasta? She shook her head. "Burger please." She repeated.

I was like...burger?! Would she know the concept of a burger? Y cackled. Yes and no. Little Missy knows that burgers come with buns and patty. But she doesn't know the difference yet between the tightly packed meat, fish or otherwise. This vegetarian tofu-based patty would work perfectly too! True enough, Little Missy liked it. Then she spied the fries, and it was all over. She gave the salty fries all her attention, with occasional mouthfuls of pasta, greens and grilled halloumi from our plates. We tried to finish off the fries before she could devour them all, and ate the other half of her burger. Tasty!

When the avocado salad came, she was most interested in trying out the salad tongs. They were somehow proportionate to her fingers. She was most enthusiastic in dishing out portions for herself and for us, even asking us if we'd like seconds. Hahahaha. We've mean plans to teach her how to make iced tea, and pour a nice dram of whisky on the rocks...eventually graduating to washing dishes. :}

As we wrapped up the meal and called for the bill, she declared that she liked this place. "I want to come back here." Okay little girl. This is Original Sin. If the restaurant is still around when you grow up and earn your own moolah, buy us a meal here. Otherwise, buy (or cook) us a meal elsewhere with your first paycheck. :P
