Joke Of The Day: On the Menu A woman walks into a restaurant, sits down, and grabs a menu.

She opens it and sees the restaurant has only two items on their menu; a seared chicken breast with potatoes and asparagus, and a classic German bratwurst platter.

The waiter comes to her table and asks her if she would like to order.

“Yes, I’ll have the seared chicken breast please,” she says.

The waiter heads to the back, only to return to her table a couple of minutes later.

“I am sorry, ma’am, but I believe we may be out of the chicken. I can go back there and double check again, as I’m not entirely positive.”

She sighs in frustration. “Well, what am I supposed to do now? I’m hungry, there is only one other thing on the menu, and I’d rather have what I ordered.”

“Relax, ma’am,” the waiter says to the woman. “Like I said, I am going to go back to the kitchen and check. In the meantime, just hope for the breast, but prepare for the wurst.”
