Bangkok Brunch

It is generally well known that brunches bring out the very worst in people.  I found this out when I was brunching a few weeks ago with some friends.  Margie and I sat with our plates containing a couple of lettuce leaves, some grated carrot and a sliver of boiled chicken.  We of course, passed on dessert.

However Sue had no such restraint.  Just how much dessert can any one person eat?  Clearly a lot!  Honestly, I was just so embarrassed.

But at least she was willing to let us taste some of her bounty.  Well, she offered up a half-eaten macaroon, that fell on the floor as she was eating it.  She picked it up, dusted it off and offered it to Margie, who sadly had been looking the other way at the time.  She popped it into her mouth and commented on how lovely and 'fluffy' it was.

Anyway, under the circumstances, Sue was graciousness personified.  But this man...

"Touch one and you're DEAD!"

I dared to ask for one of his chocolates and he raised his fist at me!  You really get a very rough sort of fellow at the brunches these days.
