UNIT 17.1: ORDERING FOOD

Waitress: Are you ready to order?

Bob       : We are.

Cheryl    : Excuse me, I have a question

Waitress: Yes

Cheryl    : I’m in the mood for lamb, but the sauce looks too fatty.

                Could I order the lamb without the sauce?

Waitress: Sure.

Cheryl    : What does it come with?

Waitress: French fries.

Cheryl    : I don’t like fried food.

              Could I have a grilled vegetable instead?

Waitress: I think we have grilled peppers.

Cheryl    : Perfect!

Waitress: Would you like to start with an appetizer?

Cheryl    : Is there oil on the tomato salad?

Waitress: There’s a lot of olive oil, yes.

Cheryl    : Could I get it without the oil?

Waitress: But it won’t taste very good.

Cheryl     : Then I’ll just have a mixed green salad.

Waitress: And you?

Cheryl     : I’m sorry, I have another question.

                Is there salt on the lamb?

Waitress: It’s cooked with salt and pepper, yes.

Cheryl     : I don’t want a lot of salt.

                I think I’ll have the fish instead.

                What’s in the sauce?

Waitress: lemon, butter, milk,…

Cheryl     : Oh! That’s too much dairy.

               Maybe I’ll have a large salad for my entrée and no appetizer.

               What’s in the salad?

Waitress: Lettuce, carrots, peppers, onions, egg,.

Cheryl     : No egg, please.

Waitress: Salad, no egg. Anything to drink?
