race to dinner

salad fork on the outside

soup spoon on the rail

lap back linen napkin

wine glass just off the tail

China leads by a nose

butter knife pulled up lame

cup and saucer hold the edge

and the waiter all to blame

main course a length back

house dressing long shot risk

vegetable de jour off the pace

still in the gates, seafood bisque

homemade bread looks fresh

a mudlark bet buttered pasta

the featured fillies had their fill

pie al mode bumped and cost ya
