Finally! Christmas is here!
Or, more importantly
it’s the end of the year.
That means peace
for days more than three,
and it isn’t even a long weekend!
It’s sad that this is “lucky”,
because this break isn’t paid,
so it’s going to cost me.
If there’s no rest for the wicked
then us kitchen folks are
badder than bad,
rename this place Port Royal,
I’d be glad.
The wickedest restaurant on Earth,
don’t need Michelin stars,
if it’s all about the food
then the best we are.
Don’t need to go far
if you live downtown,
we’re always here
(except Sundays – mostly)
so come on down!
The price is right, here,
it’s not usual to find
homemade pasta anywhere.
I’m talking individual folds
for each delightful piece.
You think you know better?
“Bitch, what you mean?!”
