The philosophers are having Yum Cha at the Star House Chinese Restaurant on Gouger Street.
Le Bon David: Phew! It's hot today. This is more like the Adelaide I remember.
Belle et Bonne: Oh yes, you and papa came last year, didn't you.
The VeloDrone: Indeed we did. As I recall, we had got up a little act together, Philosophers on Bicycles or some such thing, and it didn't go down too well.
Le Bon David: We ended up having to write reviews to get some cash.
Marie: We should do that this year. Then we could move into a nice hotel. Here comes our food. What's this?
The VeloDrone: That would be the.....umm
Belle et Bonne: Peanut Combination Dumpling? ( She takes a bite) No, it's Five Spicy Rolls.
Le Bon David: It can't be. There are only three of them.
Belle et Bonne: Five Spices, though. And very sticky. Tea, anyone?
Marie: Yes, please. Hey, who ordered this one?
The VeloDrone: Why, is something wrong with it?
Marie: Look ! It's massive!
Le Bon David: That would be mine. What is it again? Oh yes, Steamed Chinese Donut Rice Pastry. Share, anyone?
The VeloDrone: Mmmm. A donut wrapped in a noodle, with chopped onion on the top. I don't think so. Where are my King Prawn Balls?
Belle et Bonne: Here they come. Ooh!
The VeloDrone: Eat up everyone! Then we'll go shopping!
