A couple go for a meal at a Chinese restaurant and order the "Chicken Surprise". The waiter brings the meal, served in a lidded cast iron pot.

Just as the wife is about to serve herself, the lid of the pot rises slightly and she briefly sees two beady little eyes looking around before the lid slams back down.

"Good grief, did you see that?" she asks her husband.

He hasn't, so she asks him to look in the pot. He reaches for it and again the lid rises, and he sees two little eyes looking around before it slams down.

Rather perturbed, he calls the waiter over, explains what is happening, and demands an explanation.

"Please sir," says the waiter, "what you order?"

The husband replies, "Chicken Surprise."

It could have been worse. The kitchen may have sent out the "Peiping Duck". "Peiping" pronounced "Pee-ping". We say "Pee-ping", you say "Pay-ping"....

I remember seing a visual cartoon very similar to that in Playboy over 50 years ago. Still funny.

No,no Stephan, smiling, we say "Peeping".

verb
peeping look quickly and furtively at something, especially through a narrow opening.
"his door was ajar and she couldn't resist peeping in"

I had to smile at the above, this is the first time I have ever heard of a female Peeping Tom
