The cook looks like he should have a few tattoos. And he looks tough enough to survive being Sarah’s boyfriend …
I think panel #4 was the customer actually eating the meal in front of the cook … with a smile.
Thank you, Jason! I’m looking forward to slowly meeting more of the cast of characters in this corner of the Billverse. I feel like I’ve walked into a particularly warped Cheers of somesort.
Reminds me of Egor, the incompetent – and insanitary – company chef in that great cartoon of French Foreign Legion life, Beau Peep (I know Andy Capp is a great hit in the USA, surprisingly enough – I would never have thought that kind of British humour would travel well – but did Beau Peep ever catch on? If not, you’re missing something…)
And just to say I’ve workd with a few Sarahs. One of whom got back at a difficult customer by…. no, it’s too disgusting. But he claimed his steak wasn’t raw and bloody enough…. suffice to say she prepared one that met his every expectation whilst revolting all of us who were in on the secret. The poor dupe even left a tip…there’s no way even DR could turn that story into a cartoon, really.
Oh, and I’m corrected. “birra” is “beer”. So Egor is really saying “chicken in beer sauce. Without the beer.” My slip.
And the moral is: never insult the chef’s cooking until you know what the chef looks like or who he/she is, because you never know who might be cooking your food.

Enjoying the comic, Jason… very funny!
Haha classic.

All I could think of was, “That’s pretty solid and done-looking for slop.”
As Worf’s brother Kurn once asked, “How long has this bird been dead? It appears to have been lying in the sun for some time.”
Actually, AgProv, I think he’s saying chicken in beer, without the *chicken*. “Pollo” is chicken, “birra” is beer.
