Dinner for my friend's birthday

Tonight, I went to dinner at Grillade Barcelos for my friend Peter's birthday. This is a Portugese restaurant, famous for their cuisine, as well as their barbecued chicken. Their calamari was great to begin with. I really enjoyed it. I ordered a calamari to start, and then the 1/4 chicken (leg) and lamb chop special. I had a Portugese egg tart as a dessert.

However, in my main course, there was a fly in my food. As my friend Peter puts it, you have all the luck, and Peter's partner Jonathan said, "He has a lot of luck, just not good luck." Anyway, it's insects in food, and you get it changed. I was very nice about it, and the waiter apologized. He also gave me extra chips on the second round, and at the end of the evening, he gave me a shot, as well as the birthday boy - Peter. I got the shot because he was thanking me for "not making a scene earlier."

Maybe if this keeps up, I'll win the lottery.
