Cartoon: “My Compliments to Your Pyromaniac” - Restaurant Humor #3853149 (License: Personal Use)

The black-and-white cartoon depicts a startled diner seated at a fine-dining table, mouth agape as a swirling, chaotic scribble-representing smoke or flames-erupts from his plate. A smug waiter stands beside him, holding a napkin, while the punchline reads: “My compliments to your pyromaniac.” Signed by Roy Nixen, the piece uses visual exaggeration and wordplay to satirize overcooked dishes and pretentious service.
