Two Person at the restaurant

OBJECTIVES:

GENERAL:

DOING CONVERSATIONS WITH COMMON SENTENCES USED IN A RESTAURANT  

SPECIFIC:

• LEARNING VOCABULARY COMMONLY USED IN A RESTAURANT
• PRACTICING VERBAL SKILLS BY ORDERING, TAKING ORDER, OFFER, ACCEPT  OR REJECT ORDERS.

INTRODUCTION:

IN THIS HOMEWORK, WE LEARN AND PRACTICE SOME VOCABULARY AND SHORT SENTENCES USED IN RESTAURANTS WHERE WAITERS / WAITRESSES ONLY SPEAK ENGLISH. THE DIALOGUE IS VERY SIMPLE AND EASY, BUT IS THE TYPICAL CONVERSATION BETWEEN A CUSTOMER AND THE WAITER / WAITRESS.

WE CREATE A CONVERSATION WITH A LOGIC SEQUENCE, DIVIDING BY LITTLE PARTS AND TRYING TO USE MANY WORDS RELATING WITH RESTAURANTS AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.

THE STORY IS BASED IN A FEMALE CUSTOMER WHO GET IN A RESTAURANT CALLED “THE PETITE RESTAURANT”, WHERE THE FOOD IS SERVED IN VERY SMALL DISHES, AND THE PORTIONS OF THEM ARE SMALLER…BUT THE PRICES ARE HUGE.  IN THE CONVERSATION, THE LETTER “W” MEANS WAITER, AND LETTER “C” MEANS CUSTOMER.

FRAMEWORK:

W: WELCOME TO “THE PETITE RESTAURANT”. MY NAME IS HERIBERTO AND I WILL BE SERVING YOU TODAY. HERE IS THE MENU. I  WILL BACK TO TAKE YOUR ORDER IN A MINUTE.

C: THANK YOU. PLEASE, HOLD ON….I  WOULD LIKE SOME WATER, PLEASE.

W: SURE.

AFTER FEW MINUTES.

W: HERE IS YOUR GLASS OF WATER. WOULD YOU LIKE TO ORDER NOW?

C: YES, I  WOULD LIKE A FISH WITH A VEGETABLE SALAD….EXCUSE ME, WHAT VEGETABLES DOES SALAD HAVE?

W:  THE VEGETABLE SALAD HAS TWO EGGPLANTS, SOME LETTUCE, TWO CARROTS, A CELERY, A GREEN PEPPER, AND A HOT CHILI PEPPER WITH SOME OLIVE OIL.

C: SOUNDS DELICIOUS.

W: WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO DRINK?

C: WHAT DO YOU HAVE?

W: WE HAVE SOME COKE, SOME BEER, A BOTTLE OF VODKA.

C: I WOULDN’T LIKE ANY SODA OR BEER.

W: WOULD YOU LIKE ANY COFFEE?

C: I WOULDN’T ANY COFEE BUT I WOULD LIKE SOME ORANGE JUICE.

W: I AM AFRAID WE DON’T HAVE ANY ORANGE JUICE.

C: THEN, I WOULD LIKE SOME TEA.

W: A CUP OF HOT TEA OR A GLASS OF COLD TEA?

C: I WANT A GLASS OF COLD TEA, PLEASE.

W: YES, OF COURSE. I WILL TAKE YOUR MENU. YOUR ORDER WILL BE IN A FEW MINUTES.

AFTER ANOTHER FEW MINUTES.-

W: HERE IS YOUR FOOD. ENJOY YOUR MEAL.

C: THANK YOU.

FEW MINUTES LATER:

C: WAITER, PLEASE. THIS FOOD IS HORRIBLE. IT SEEMS PLASTIC FOOD. I COULDN’T  EAT  IT.

W: I’M SORRY TO EAR THAT, WOULD YOU LIKE ANYTHING  ELSE?
