To revel in the acute ordinance
of relish and pickles.
The humble serving size of tang
and arbitrary sweet.
A heavenly match - a catch,
topped with mustard and hash.
The satisfied tongue of many
a delight, the licking of lips
guaranteed sight.
No place like the corner
kitchen; checkered cloths
adorn, an adventurous
palate's dream.
Fill a plate, make a date,
a sure fate to hate at first sight.
but first dip, crunch and taste - make haste,
its food -
the people pleasing scene
of upmost highness.
"we're exquisite simplicity at its finest".
