Having some trouble by Carmelo

 

Dialogue  to solve some little problems in a restaurant by Carmelo Polo

CUSTOMER: Good afternoon!

WAITER: Good afternoon, have you got a reservation?  

CUSTOMER: Excuse me, my name is Baker and I have reserved a table for two people but we are, unexpectedly, three people. Could you change our table for two to a table for three people, please?

WAITER: I do not know if it will be possible. I will check the reservation book and I'll see if I can do what you ask me.

CUSTOMER: Thank you!

WAITER: Well. I have seen that there is a free table for three because a reservation has just been cancelled and I can offer it to you.

CUSTOMER: Thank you.

WAITER: Come this way, please.

CUSTOMER: Sorry. I have a bad cold and this table is too close to the window. Could you change this table for another one which was farther away from the window, please?

WAITER: Sorry. It is impossible. I have no more free tables. I could close the window if you want.

CUSTOMER: Oh! Yes. Thank you, if you could do it, I will be so grateful!

WAITER:. Would you like any drink while you watch the menu?

CUSTOMER: Excuse me. I have a wine list but I have no menu. May I have one, please?

WAITER: Sorry, sir. Immediately I bring one.

WAITER: Here you are.

CUSTOMER: Thank you.

WAITER: Anything to drink?

CUSTOMER: Just some water, please.

WAITER: Are you ready to order?

CUSTOMER: Sorry. Is there any milk in the Yorkshire Pudding?

WAITER: Yes sir. There is some milk.

CUSTOMER: Uhmmm, I don’t like it. And excuse me, my wife does not like rice but she likes salad. Could you change the chicken and rice for chicken and lettuce, please?

WAITER: Yes, sir.

CUSTOMER: Well, we'll have the chicken with lettuce for my wife, fish and chips for my friend, and the vegetable pasta for me, please.

WAITER: Yes, sir. Good choice!

WAITER: Enjoy your meal!

WAITER: Would you eat any dessert?

CUSTOMER: Yes, we would like a lemon ice cream, a tiramisu and a rice pudding, please.

WAITER: Are you satisfied? Would you have anything else?

CUSTOMER:  Regarding to the first question, I say, yes. Concerning to the second, we say, no.

CUSTOMER: Could we have the bill, please?

WAITER: Yes, here it is.

CUSTOMER: Is V.A.T. included in the bill? Can we pay cash or by credit card?

WAITER: YES. You can pay individually what has taken each, cash o credit card.

WAITER: Here you are the leftovers of each dish; I have put them in a doggie bag.

CUSTOMER: Good bye!

WAITER: Good bye!
