An American tourist was lunching in a restaurant in China where the specialty was duck. The waiter explained each dish as he brought it to the table. "This is the breast of the duck; this the leg of the duck; this is the wing of the duck; etc." 
Then came the dish that the American knew was chicken. He waited for the explanation. 
Silence. "Well?" he finally asked, "What's this?" The waiter replied, "It's a friend of duck."

A out-of-towner in New York at the height of the tourist season decided to revisit an uptown restaurant he'd enjoyed on a previous trip to the city. Finally catching the eye of an overworked waiter, he said, "You know, it's been over five years since I first came in here." 

"You'll have to wait your turn, sir," replied the harried and now 
irritated waiter, "I can only serve one table at a time.

Once a man went to a restaurant and ordered an egg. When it was brought he didn't like it so he informed the waiter that the egg was bad. 

Came the reply: "I don't lay egg sir I just lay table !"
