Come and Dine with ich

Maybe a bit out of date now?

To the tune of COME FLY WITH ME as sung by FRANK SINATRA:

Come dine with us, go eat at the Fat Duck
Where you can choose, from our new menus
Fifty things that will make you chuck
Come dine with us, if your belly feels in luck

Come dine with us, try the salmonella stew
If it's-a bit bland, pepper's on demand
We can add E-Coli too
It's the posh-nosh craze – if you get ill please don't sue

Once you get up here, where the butter's rarefied
Snails are fried, as a side
Once you come up here, I'll be holding the bucket near
You may hear, some ladies cheer – because they're bulimic

Heston has three stars from Michelin
For the mighty price, it's a real surprise
When your dinner won't stay in
Your stomach, and spews out onto your shoes – and chin
Come dine with us, come try our sick buffet

Maybe it's a little out of date, but I thought it was pretty good.
It definitely gave me a laugh.

that is really funny and clever

I think you are right Rob, a little out of date now. Some very good stuff but the opening threw me a bit.

Shouldn't it be "Come dine with us, come eat at the Fat Duck"? You've got comings and goings and that makes it feel a bit awkward.

Surprised you didn't go for something else to rhyme with "duck" as well!

Yeah you're right. Just banged this one out in a rush, as couldn't get the idea out of my head.

I have some restraint :P
