Re: Re: Haggis

Sounds similar to something I had once in Toronto.  Went to an authentic
Greek restaurant.  Asked the waiter to suggest something, because the menu
was written in Greek.  He suggested his favorite.  I said, "What is it?" 
He said, "Is meat".  "What kind of meat?", I asked.  "Is lamb, how you say?
Delicacy.  Very Good.", he says.  He'd just gotten off the boat and didn't
have much of a grasp of the language yet.  So I ended up with tripe,
entrails, brains, what-have-you, stuffed into a casing wrapped in cabbage
leaves or something.  Still not knowing, though, I tried it and just about
upchucked right there.  I made my brother-in-law trade plates with me
because the b...d knew what I was getting (he speaks Greek) and just sat
there being of no help at all.
