I wasn't going to post this...but every time I think of it, it still makes me chuckle after 40+ years.

Being on the road for many years, one of our favorite things to do after a gig, was to go eat Chinese. We had favorite restaurants in every city. In Chicago, at one of our favorites, we always had (for over a year) the same elderly Chinese waiter. He would always, almost forcefully, suggest "Takasuni" (pronounced Tah-Kah Sunny). We had never seen it on any menu in any Chinese restaurant we had ever been to, and we had considered ourselves "experts" in Chinese dining. We were afraid. however, to be this adventurous. (Who knows what could be in it???) One night we finally decided to go whole hog. We all burst into laughter when he arrived with our chocolate sundae!!!!
