Waiter: Good morning Sir. May I take your order for breakfast?
Waiter: Yes sir. We do. Which juice do you like to start with, sir, pineapple or grape juice?

and marmalade and Horlicks.
Guest: Hi, I would like to order drinks. Let me have your wine list.
Guest-2: No, not me. It’s mid-day. I would like to have a Campari, with lots of soda water and ice.
Guest-1: That’s a fantastic idea. Why don’t you have a Campari and soda water, John?
Guest-3: No, I would like to have a beer. A bottle of cold lager will be fine.
Guest-1: Ok, waiter, a Campari with soda water and ice, a cold bottle of lager and a scotch on the rack
for me.
Waiter: All right, sir. I will be right back with your orders within 5 minutes.

with orange sauce. Is it right?
CONVERSATION: WHEN WAITER SUGGESTS MAIN COURSE
Guest: Yes, but I am still looking at the menu. Tell me what would you recommend for the main course?
Waiter: Why don’t you try Beef Chasseur? It’s very good.
Guest: Sorry I don’t get it. What exactly is this Noisettes Milanese?
Waiter: That’s lamb cooked with herbs and served with spaghetti.
Waiter: All right, Ma’aam. I will be with your meal in few minutes.
Waiter: Our today’s special is very good. Hotchpotch with beef along with green salad and pickles. It’s
very popular during rainy days like today.

Waiter: Yes, sir. This on the right is Black Forest Cake, on the left Diplomat Pudding, in the middle
Pineapple Tart and here in the corner Cream Caramel. Besides we have ice cream of different flavor and
fruit cocktail.
