The Chef:

Luigison:
Paraprosdokian - The term for a figure of speech in which a sentence or phrase has an unexpected or surprising ending. Often used for humourous effect, and thus heavily used by comedians.

Example:  “Where there’s a will, I want to be in it.”

Weegee:
It sounds more like a Greek dish.

CrossEyed7:
