Le Pamplemouse
I was just checking out the menu of a famous restaurant in Port Vila that I have booked dinner for two on Boxing Day.
Given that there is limited service during the festive week, I thought it is best that I get myself organised and pre-order my dinner. Freshly caught lobsters from the nearby beach are definitely a must for mains. I heard that the souffle is another highly rated dessert in that dining establishment. Now I just needed to look for two entrees and another dessert.
I came across a dessert that says pamplemouse served with vodka and ice-cream. Not knowing what a "pamplemouse" is, I did a quick google for a definition.
The first one that came up from Urban Dictionary. The definition is " to suck all of a woman's clitoral and labial flesh into ones mouth then bite it."
Hmmm... I thought. That couldn't be it. Not on a restaurant menu. I looked further and found another more likely definition of the object in question. It is a grapefruit.
Is it just me being outdated?
Or does anyone actually is aware that le pamplemouse meant the act of that?
I must be getting old already.
