Big proceeded to chop and trick and slice and fool.
He caught us a second time with the chilli sauce trick, by saying, "No, real one this time" and presenting a different sized and shaped bottle.
It was a little less traumatic though (sez me - because it wasn't aimed at me this time).
We were then served a stirfry with potatoes - as Dani says this wasn't officially on the menu, but I knew it was coming because I'd been all over the website before booking. Hence my initial reaction when I found out we couldn't have the Early Bird as that was the result of intense research.
Anyway, I knew part of the game of serving the potatoes was to try to flip them into the diners' mouths. Limes went first, and her tactic was to stay as still as possible and rely on Big's skill and experience. Sadly this didn't work and both hit her on the forehead.
I tucked my napkin into my dress and tried to weave and dodge like a dog with a frisbee but only managed to get one in my mouth and the velocity made it bounce back out again.
I think Big hit his stride with Dani and she caught the second one like a seal, to our applause.
Between-course course.
Dani pontificating. Possibly about the trajectory of potatoes.
