I said I wanted "haute cuisine" not that I neccessarily found it.

> <'oHHa'>. Wow. This is just really strange. I think I like it.

I was trying to think of the best way to say "it is absolutely not, and
cannot be"

> > <tay> Qe' jItu'. qabqu'be' <tay> Soj.

I was trying for the idea of "not absolutely horrid"

"My first voyage to Earth" part I
story composed by Tuv'el, son of Claw

Earth is found in the alpha quadrant.  It is the homeworld of Humans.  Earth
is the strangest world in this galaxy.  Earth is smaller than Kronos, so
Earth's gravity seemed weak to me.  When I arrived in the city of "San
Francisco" my translator stopped working again.  Luckily, I studied
<English> while I was young.  I was as hungry as gagh, so I looked for a
restaurant that served Earth cuisine.  I noticed an "Italian" restaurant and
I went in.  I said to the waiter, "Bring some pungent food for me."  The
so-called food he brought was very bland.  I demanded to meet the head cook
and I said, "I cannot eat this food.  Bring me sharp food, now!"  Because he
misunderstood me, he brought me pipius claws.  When I arrived at the hotel,
I tried to order gagh, but I received only dead friggin' gagh!  If I visit
Earth again, I will certainly bring a lot of Klingon food to go.

"My first voyage to Earth" part II

My bed was too soft so I slept on the floor.  As soon as I woke up, I went
to the city of "San Diego" to see the zoo.  I saw most of the animals of
Earth.  I saw an animal that looked like a large sark but it's neck was very
long.  I said, "That animal seems to resemble a sark."  A little Terran girl
heard me, and replied, "No, that's a giraffe.  Sarks live in the ocean."  I
didn't understand her before I entered the fish area.  I saw a "shark."
This Earth animal looked like a norg.  So, the Terran girl was confused.
The zoo contained a section for the animals of Kronos.  While I was there, I
absolutely enjoyed the stronger gravity.  This section undoubtedly resembled
the surface of Kronos, but there was one serious error.  There was a
disgusting tribble hiding in a tree!  I tried to kill it but was prevented
by a force field.  I explained clearly to the zoo's commander.  Tribbles do
not live on Kronos.  All Klingon's utterly detest tribbles.  The Klingon
homeworld is not the homeworld of tribbles.  I was surprised because he
became very angry.  I didn't know Humans could be so passionate.  Do they
not resemble Vulcans?

I found a "Thai" restaurant.  "Thai" food is not too bad.

"My first voyage to Earth" part III

Today I visited the city of Paris.  I arrived while it was still night.  I
wanted to listen to a Human opera.  Impure Human opera is obviously not
Klingon Grand Opera!  I dislike their music.  

I visited the "Eiffel" and the "Louvre."  The "Eiffel" building is very
tall.  The "Louvre" is a building that contains many statues and displays.
I saw a Bat'telh display and a statue that looked like "blood oath circles."
I really liked the statues, but the displays were very strange.  When I
visited the ancient temple of an Earth religeon, I saw a "gargoyle" statue.
A "gargoyle" resembles the Fek'lhr.  The stained-glass windows were also
interesting.
