French restaurant (It's Raining Gin)
There was a French restaurant in Paris that Panda thought was "divine".
History[[edit] | [edit source]]
In the latter half of the 20th century, when Panda met Soo waiting for the bus with the rest of the cast of The Sooty Show, he flirtatiously offered to take her to the French restaurant for lunch — although he realised the redundancy of referring to the restaurant as French as all restaurants were French in Paris. Soo, acting demurely, accepted, although she was initially uncertain about leaving Sooty and Sweep behind, knowing they'd get into mischief, but Iris Wildthyme reassured her.
The duo went to the restaurant in '62 and ate scampi. They then consummated their brief relationship, causing Soo to later have a child, whom she named after the meal: Scampi. (PROSE: It's Raining Gin [+]Loading...{"page":"135, 138","1":"It's Raining Gin (short story)"})
