An Italian buffet.

In China.

Featuring a German fräulein.

Holding a massive jug of beer. And a pretzel.

Without a single piece of pasta or pizza to be seen.

I honestly don’t know if this is insulting or genius.

But it certainly ups the ante on this Italian, Irish restaurant in Singapore.

I really want to know to things.

1. What sort of cultural Frankenstein food are they’re going to serve?

2. Who do the organisers think this is going to attract … apart from idiots?

And me.

Oops.

In my defence, given where the World is right now, this celebration of cultural diversity may be the best thing I’ve seen in a long time.

OK, I don’t believe that either. Bugger.

Maybe the organizers couldn’t be bothered to update the dates on the posters. Or maybe Rob has given up the will to blog.

It’s a scarily accurate summary of my life, though.
