Does he mean to imply the chef needs to first catch a fish — or wants to catch one of the waitresses?

Whilst

Hey, at least you know that it will be fresh.

Tell the chef to use dynamite. He’ll have several catches of the day in no time.

I ordered a steak?

Whilst the catch is caught bring me a glass of Pinot Grigio.

What on earth is going on with that waiter’s hands? It’s creepy!

It’ll be fresh if he succeeds.

Perfect.

He’s out driving around looking for the critter de jour

Whilst and while are two spellings of the same word, which can be used as a conjunction or an adverb. They mean at the same time or whereas. Whilst is no longer common and is mostly used in British English. Some Brits also find whilst a little outdated. While is dominant in American English and can also be used as a noun, verb, or preposition. If you want to play it safe, use while.

There will be a slight delay with the chicken soup as well, as the chicken is currently refusing to take another bath.

Otherwise known as the stall while they try to catch up in the kitchen.

What sort of “drink” is the waiter offering? That option would cover a lot of ground. Use to be that the customer got a glass of water, even if they didn’t ask for it.

Soooo, he out for the halibut?

……catch of the day…..

This is one of the reasons I don’t eat fish.

That chef has a lot on his plate

At least it will be fresh.

Your lobsters run around the kitchen?…

He’s not having any luck there so he checking the neighbor’s rat traps.

Great to have the kitchen window overhanging the lake..
