Mong goose reminded me...
Standing in my local one day with my back to the door, I suddenly could smell chinese food.

Sniffing the air in a scooby doo way, I remarked "I can smell chinese", only to turn around and come face to face with Christine, an oriental looking woman.

Oh how everyone else laughed as I blustered "No, no - I meant FOOD! I can smell chinese food!"

Not worth a story in its own right
but my very first boss did similar, walked up to where I was talking to the Indian guy from IT and said 'Wow, who had curry last night?'.

Could have been worse...
If he was hungry he might have said 'Can you small that? I could murder a Chinese!'

Don't worry
Blustering about Chinese food probably made it alright

It made a change from me going on about her tits (she's got a cracking pair)

Although to be fair, Chinese people do smell awful.

I think it's that gentically they have small nostrils.
