Food Joke

Directions Shlomo goes to see his psychiatrist. "Doctor, my wife Fay is being unfaithful to me. Every night, she goes to Palwin’s Wine Bar and picks up a man. She sleeps with anybody who asks her to. I`m going crazy with worry. What on earth should I do?" Relax," says the Doctor, "take a couple of deep breaths and try to calm down. Now, first of all tell me exactly where Palwin’s Wine Bar is."
