More exciting lunch adventures.

I AM ABOUT TO BE VERY BRAVE.

I would have liked to have been blessed with adventurous taste buds. I *LIKE* to try new things…unfortunately I often don’t like them.

Lately I’ve been trying to not choose the meat option for my midday meals, and in the spirit of this new resolution I just bought a baguette from Miss Mauds that is: tuna, feta, avocado, sundried tomatoes and dill sauce. I'm a bit worried about that combination of ingredients. In fact, given I’m not a fan of dill I’m a bit terrified.

When I got to the counter there was a mob of old people all vying to be served – it wasn’t pretty. I waited. After they’d all left I was approached by a server with that unmistakeable expression in her eyes of the hospitality worker who’s lost all hope and possibly the will to live.

Me *conspiratorily* Wow, that was a lot of cranky old people. I was afraid to move until they left.
Server *eyes me, clearly deciding whether to trust me*
Me *smiles sympathetically*
Server *smiles* OMG they are always like that! They think we’re not trying to serve them!
Me – Because clearly you’re all standing around chatting.
Server – I know, right? *procedes to very cheerful and helpful*

Was it nice? Aside from the tuna, it sounds good. I often have dill sauce, halloumi and veggies, with wasabi. You gotta like dill I guess though :-D

I'm not a fan of dill, sadly. I chickened out and dabbed all the sauce off that I could see, with a tissue, and that worked out okay.

I got it again a week later without the sauce and that worked out well.
