- A
- Hi, could we have a table for two, please? My friend's on the way.
- B
- Of course. Here's the menu. Can I get you something to drink while you wait?
- A
- Just a sparkling water, please. What do you recommend?
- B
- The pesto pasta is very popular. I'm afraid the fish special is finished tonight, though.
- A
- Does the pesto have nuts in it? I'm allergic.
- B
- Yes, it's made with pine nuts. The tomato and basil pasta is nut-free, and I'll let the chef know about your allergy.
- A
- Great, I'll have that. How long does a pizza take? We need to leave by eight.
- B
- Pizzas are taking about 25 minutes tonight because we're really busy. Pasta's quicker — about ten minutes.
- A
- Then my friend will probably have pasta too. Could we have the garlic bread to start?
- B
- Sure. Shall I bring it now, or wait for your friend?
- A
- Now, please. And could we have the bill with our main courses, so we don't miss our film?
- B
- No problem at all. I'll bring it with your food.
Reto extra para los más avanzados
The friend arrives and is vegan, and A has to order for them. Then the food arrives with a dish that looks like it has nuts on top, and A must politely send it back while B apologises and sorts it out quickly.
