Cross Cultural Dinner

An excerpt from an email I sent to Nina:

"Also, I am riskily committed to trying what seem to be authentic things from restarants here... so last night i narrowed my search to three items on the menu and went with the one that sounded the most swiss: Rumpsteak presented in a braided bun with potatoes and this special sauce. Meanwhile I judged Glenn for ordering something 'safe' chicken with veg in marsala sauce. I went ahead and splurged on a glass of red wine to go with my steak, i mean ,i never order beef... much less something called steak. SO when my meal comes, i stare at it in shock for a minute at first and then start cracking up. What is staring up at me? A hamburger and fries with a container of special sauce, in a braided bun as promised. AHAHHAAA! So I ate my burger with my merlot. Classic.
