APPLES (& PEARS) RESTAURANTCockney Rhyming Slang has rules and grammar, meanwhile our TV cookery programmes become ever more confusing & pretentious. So let’s merge the two !!
In Cockney Rhyming Slang, we never call the
Stairs the
Pears, we call them by the none rhyming word,
Apples.
Imagine then, if that non-rhyming word also has to have some link to the word it describes, this could become very complicated, but no more awkward than trying to work out what a “
freeze packed cardoman jue” might be.
So let the fun commence. Below is a menu for Apples (& Pears) Restaurant, represented by the grammar of Cockney Rhyming Slang, try to fathom out what might arrive on your plate. Good luck, see you in sanatorium !!
