Our friend K reminded me of this funny moment from our Paris trip.
I mentioned previously that Bert doesn't speak French, but I was being a little unfair because he did try once...
Bert: Deux bieres
Waiter: Gruyère??
This was the night of the 900g steak. Luckily the waiter didn't bring a cheese board as we were rather stuffed. As well as the giant steak, we had consumed a huge amount of lovely chips that came with it, and a starter. Anyway, Bert was so impressed with the steak that he made a joke with the waiter about whether it was 'buy one, get one free'. The waiter didn't seem to get the joke and we realised why when he returned with...another plate of 'frites'!
(Which we ate. Just out of politeness, you understand.)
