IN A RESTAURANT

Waitress: Hi, welcome to our restaurant.

Customer: Thank you very much.

Waitress: How many people are there?

Customer: Just one.

Waitress: Just one person, ok. Smoking or non-smoking?

Customer: Non-smoking please.

Waitress: Come along and have a seat right here.

Customer: Thanks.

Waitress: Here are your menus and a glass of water. Can I get you something to drink?

Customer: Mmm…I was wondering about this wine actually. What’s your house wine?

Waitress: Our house wine is this red wine right here and it’s 10 dollars.

Customer: Oh, I think I’ll have a glass of that actually.

Waitress: Just a glass?

Customer: How much is it for a bottle?

Waitress: 10 dollars.

Customer: Oh sorry. Yeah I’ll have a bottle then, thanks.

Waitress: Can I take your order for an appetizer?

Customer: Mmm…I quite like the look of several of these. Now the melon, does that come with anything else?

Waitress: The melon? It just comes with some garnish but it’s pretty much just plain melon with garnish and some whipped cream.

Customer: What would you recommend?

Waitress: Well I really recommend the fries. They’re quite good and they come with cheese and tomatoes and some chili on top.

Customer: Oh they sound nice. Ok, I’ll have those thanks.

Waitress: Are you ready to order your meal?

Customer: Yes I think I’m ready now. I think I’ll have this vegetable goulash.
Can you tell me, is it vegetarian?

Waitress: It is, actually. It’s all vegetarian but it does come with cheese.

Customer: Oh that’s ok, I’ll eat cheese. Do I get anything with it?

Waitress: It comes with a side order of rice or potatoes.

Customer: I’d like rice please.

Waitress: Ok.


AFTER TIME


Waitress: Did you enjoy your meal?

Customer: It was delicious, thank you.

Waitress: Can I get you anything else?

Customer: Oh, I’d like to look at the dessert menu please. Mm these all look nice. Oh I think I must go for this chocolate cake here.

Waitress: Chocolate cake. Very good choice-that’s our most popular dish.

Customer: Could I get cream with it please?

Waitress: Would you like custard or whipped cream?

Customer: Whipped cream please.
