Food Joke

John and Tracy were in a very posh restaurant. John asked for the menu. he brought the menu to them but stated "I am not a waiter, my name is Hans and I wash the dishes for Yosfayce , the Russian chef". A few minutes later, Hans came back and said "I can't find Yosfayce or the waiter, but I will take your order" They had decided to have Squid. Hans went to get the tank. John chose the Squid, and Hans removed it from the tank and rushed it to the kitchen. Hans returned "I cannot kill that squid, as it has lots of little hairs around its mouth,I can't kill that".John insisted that he was going to have the Squid."OK" said Hans "I will find Yosfayce and get him to do it. He will kill anything "5 minutes later, Yosfayce comes over to the table and says "I can't kill the Squid, It has lots of hairs around its mouth".John asked "WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?" The Waiter appeared, and said "This means Hans that do dishes can be soft as yosfayce, with mild green hairy lipped squid"
