poem10 - eating by numbers

.
.
.
A bowl of Chicken noodle soup
number 24
then I ate a 68
I needed something more

Beef in black bean it was
tender dark and nice
I had it with a 146
special egg fried rice

I also had a seafood dish
a number 47
Great big prawns with cashew nuts
I thought I’d gone to heaven!

Spare ribs and a plate of duck
4 and 87
A tangle of chop suey
number 1 – 11

By then I felt a little full
and so I paid the waiter
Trouble is with Chinese food
You’re hungry two hours later!

So I had a pizza

  2. One of each please, and a bowl of hot and sour soup on the side. Now I'm definitely hungry. We have a Chinese restaurant here, but they load everything up with MSG so we seldom eat there.
