WITH THAT YOU GET FRIED RICE WITH PIZZA

Every month like clockwork, I have lunch with an old colleague of mine from years ago. Being that he can’t eat garlic, we go to this all-you-can-eat Chinese buffet. This gives my friend a choice or choices that help him stay healthy.

The problem is not the friendship, not the time of the month or day, but the food. It seems the Chinese proprietor loves Italian food! Between the dumplings and the dim sum lies the small pan pizzas’, screaming out to you: CHINESE PIZZA JUST THE WAY YOU LIKE IT!

If Chinese Pizza is not your thing, try their Chinese linguine with clam sauce or spaghetti with shrimp scampi, guaranteed to give you a sense of Italy behind the Great Wall. Not to say that the owner is un-American because he does put out French Fries. If he is un-American he may be pro-French.

Come to think of it, the fortune cookies lack fortunes! My fortune was: “Education does not mean intelligence and intelligence do not mean education as the author demonstrated.

So what’s the problem, Joe? You’re getting your basic Chinese, Italian, maybe American or French, what else you want, sushi?

Well, sushi is the first thing I go for when I get there.
