  • Are you ready yet?
  • Almost!
  • Just five more minutes!
  • Okay, hurry up!
  • In this lesson we're going to go to the restaurant.
  • Are you ready?
  • Let's go!
  • Hello, my name is Matti from POC English and in this lesson we're going to go to the restaurant and we're going to see how to speak English in a restaurant.
  • Part 1.
  • Before going to the restaurant.
  • First, let's learn some words and phrases that you may need to learn and use when you are planning to have a meal outside.
  • The first one is a phrasal verb.
  • To eat out.
  • It's very obvious, right?
  • If you eat out, it means you eat outside your house.
  • You go to a restaurant.
  • But instead of eat, if you say dine, to dine out, what does it mean?
  • To have lunch or dinner outside.
  • to have dinner outside, to go to a restaurant to have dinner.
  • Let's dine out tonight, shall we?
  • Now, if you want to eat out or dine out, before going to the restaurant, you want to make sure that they have a table available for you.
  • Let's say you are two people, you want to dine out, but you are not sure if they have a table ready for you.
  • So what you need to do is to call the restaurant and what should you do?
  • You should book a table or you should make a reservation.
  • Book a table or make a reservation.
  • That means to call the restaurant to let them know that you want to go there tonight for dinner or today for lunch and that if they have a table available for you.
  • Hi, I'd like to book a table for tonight at around 8 p.m.
  • Let me check.
  • Yes, we have a table available for you.
  • Now, when you go to a restaurant, the restaurant may be very expensive.
  • It may also be reasonably priced.
  • Reasonably priced?
  • Does it mean it's cheap?
  • No, it's not cheap.
  • The prices are reasonable.
  • It means you can accept the price.
  • Huh, it sounds fair.
  • Well, that's a stake.
  • $20 for that steak, 300 grams of steak, $20.
  • That's fair.
  • This is reasonably priced.
  • For example, I check the menu of that restaurant and it is reasonably priced.
  • Now at the restaurant, there are some people who are working.
  • Those people are called the staff.
  • Now, if the staff are paying attention to the customers, they are answering to their needs, and they are being very careful with everything, those staff are attentive.
  • Attentive staff.
  • It means staff who really care about customers.
  • The next word to learn is cuisine.
  • Cuisine.
  • Now, a lot of my students have problems pronouncing this.
  • Pay attention.
  • Now put them together.
  • Where's the stress?
  • Is it on the first syllable or the second syllable?
  • Cuisine, it's on the second syllable.
  • Repeat after me, cuisine.
  • Now, what does it mean?
  • Cuisine is a specific type of food for a country or a place.
  • Now, what is local cuisine?
  • Local cuisine is the specific type of food you can find in a particular area.
  • For example, in the city I live right now, which is Milan in Italy, local cuisine is risotto milanese.
  • It's a very tasty dish.
  • made with risotto, which is rice, and saffron, which is a kind of herb.
  • And you have to try this local cuisine when you come to Italy.
  • Now, there is a type of food which is generally categorized as continental food.
  • What is it?
  • Continental food is European food.
  • Food made in Europe.
  • Food cooked and prepared in Europe.
  • That is continental food.
  • For example, Italian food, Spanish food, French food, German food, Portuguese food.
  • These are continental food.
  • But we also have another category, which is oriental food.
  • Oriental food are Southeast Asian food.
  • So, Oriental, Continental, which one do you prefer?
  • I really like Oriental food.
  • How about you?
  • And another type of food is vegetarian food or even vegan food.
  • Now, vegetarian food is a type of food that does not include any meat.
  • Vegan food, on the other hand, is any food that doesn't include any meat or any other product coming from animals.
  • including eggs or milk.
  • Okay, enough learning for now.
  • Let's see how to use what we have learned in a dialogue.
  • Guys, would you like to dine out this weekend?
  • Great idea!
  • I'm free on Saturday.
  • How about you, John?
  • I'll try my best to come.
  • Nice.
  • Do you know somewhere to go?
  • There is this new place two streets away from here.
  • I checked the menu and it's reasonably priced.
  • And what types of food do they have?
  • Mainly local cuisine.
  • I don't know.
  • I'm a vegetarian, you know.
  • Yes, and they have a vegetarian menu too.
  • Do they have continental food too?
  • I think yes.
  • I'm not sure though.
  • Sounds great.
  • I'm down.
  • But it's so crowded at the weekend.
  • We should make a reservation right now.
  • So what are we waiting for?
  • Let's do it.
  • I hope you're enjoying this lesson.
  • Before we continue, let me tell you something.
  • Do you want to have the summary of this lesson in a PDF file?
  • And not just this lesson, all of the lessons on my YouTube channel for free.
  • How can I do that?
  • You can download my free English book.
  • In this book I have 400 pages of lesson summaries.
  • 400 pages!
  • That means all of the summaries of all of my YouTube channel videos from day one and this is
  • for free for my YouTube subscribers.
  • So get it now.
  • How?
  • Click on the link above my head, go to my website, type in your email address, your name, and click download.
  • You will receive the book in your email.
  • Now, let's get back to our lesson.
  • Part two, at the restaurant.
  • Now, when you are at the restaurant, the first thing you need is the menu.
  • So menu, as you know, is a list with the names of all the dishes, all the meals that that restaurant has to offer.
  • Nowadays, many restaurants do not offer a menu on paper, but rather they have a QR code on the table.
  • You have to scan it with your phone to see the menu.
  • And that is good, I think.
  • You don't use paper.
  • Now, next to the menu, some restaurants have another menu, which is the drinks menu.
  • That is the list of all the drinks they have to offer.
  • Different wines, different sodas, soft drinks, alcoholic drinks, the entire list of drinks.
  • Now, sometimes on the menu you may see one section titled Today's Special or maybe Specials.
  • What is that?
  • That is the dish or the meal that the chef has prepared specifically for today.
  • Tomorrow you won't find that on the menu.
  • It's only for today.
  • That is today's special.
  • Now, each meal at the restaurant may have three different steps.
  • The first one is the starter, which is a very light meal so as to work up an appetite.
  • Good phrase.
  • Work up an appetite.
  • What does it mean?
  • Appetite is the desire to eat.
  • If you work up an appetite, it means you are doing something to your body that your body feels more and more hungry.
  • So basically, you are preparing your stomach for the real meal, which is after the starter and is called the main course.
  • Main course is the main dish, the biggest dish you're going to eat.
  • After that, you may want to order dessert, which is something sweet at the end of the meal.
  • Now, when you order your meal, you may want to choose some side dishes.
  • Side dishes, what are those?
  • Well, maybe some yogurt, some olives, something to eat, some pickles, something to eat next to your food.
  • They just put it beside your food.
  • It's not part of your main meal.
  • So you can order side dishes or if you're having salad or something that requires some sauce, you can order dressing.
  • Dressing.
  • Dressing is not, no, no, no, it's not dressing.
  • Dressing is basically sauce added to salad.
  • Now at the end of the menu or at the bottom of each page of the menu, you may see this word allergen.
  • Allergen.
  • But what does it mean?
  • Allergen or plural allergens are the materials, the substances in the food that may cause an allergic reaction.
  • So, for example, if you are allergic to tomatoes, you may want to check the allergens to see if tomatoes are in the meal you're going to order.
  • Or, if you're allergic to peanuts, you may find peanuts in the allergens.
  • And finally, a very useful phrase.
  • Imagine you and your friend are at the restaurant, and your friend decides to have pizza.
  • And then you think that, huh, pizza, sounds good, I want the same.
  • What can you say?
  • A pizza for me too, that's okay.
  • But you can also say, huh, make it two.
  • Make it two.
  • It means I want the exact same that he ordered.
  • If you are the third person, you can say, yeah, make that three.
  • Make it two, make it three.
  • That means me too.
  • I want the exact same that these guys are having.
  • All right, enough.
  • Let's see how to use these in a dialogue.
  • I booked a table for two for 7 p.m.
  • under the name of Thomas Shelby.
  • Of course, please come this way.
  • After sitting.
  • Sorry, could we have the menu please?
  • Of course, just scan the QR code.
  • A few minutes later.
  • Can I take your order sir?
  • What would you like for main course?
  • Yes, a margarita pizza please.
  • Excellent choice.
  • And you sir?
  • Yeah, make it two.
  • Two margarita pizzas.
  • Anything for a starter?
  • Maybe seasoned salad?
  • And I'll have the fried snails.
  • Okay.
  • Anything to drink?
  • How about a bottle of water?
  • Yes, a bottle of sparkling water.
  • Great.
  • I'll be right back with your order.
  • Now, as you are having your meal, you may have some needs or requests.
  • Who should you call?
  • You should call the waiter.
  • Now, you can call the waiter or the waitress.
  • but you can use a very nice phrasal verb, flag down.
  • To flag down the waiter or to flag down the waitress means to wave at them, get their attention, and then they will come to you.
  • This is to flag down.
  • Waiter, waitress, excuse me, sir, ma'am.
  • That is flagging down.
  • It means calling them to come to you.
  • Another one is round of drinks.
  • round of drinks?
  • What does it mean?
  • Well, if you are out with more than three friends, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, if you want to order drinks, you may say, we need another round of drinks.
  • Now, a round of drinks means drinks for everybody.
  • It's not just for me.
  • If I want a drink, I would say, I need another Coca-Cola.
  • But if everyone at the table wants the same drink, you would say, sorry, another round of drinks here.
  • It means everyone at this table would like another drink, a round of drinks.
  • And the waiter or the waitress may say, right away, right away.
  • Right away?
  • What does it mean?
  • No, it means immediately.
  • Without hesitation.
  • Right now.
  • Right away, sir.
  • Look at this dialogue.
  • Great pizza.
  • Tell me about it.
  • I need another beer.
  • Me too.
  • Let's flag down the waiter.
  • Yes, sir.
  • Can we get another round of drinks?
  • Right away, sir.
  • When your meal is finished and you want to leave the restaurant, you have to pay the bill.
  • An informal phrase, instead of pay the bill, you can also say foot the bill.
  • Yes, foot.
  • To foot the bill means to pay the bill, but that's informal.
  • If you're out with your friends, you may want to foot the bill.
  • It means to pay it.
  • Now, where do you pay the bill?
  • First of all, you need to ask for the bill or the check.
  • Uh, can we have the check please?
  • You can use this sign as well.
  • Sorry.
  • Can I have the check please?
  • Or can I have the bill please?
  • They will bring it to you at your table.
  • You can see, if you want you can discuss, you can divide, you can split the cost.
  • And that is splitting the cost.
  • The act of I pay for my share, you pay for your share, you pay for your share.
  • We are splitting the cost.
  • A very lovely idiom here, go Dutch.
  • Go Dutch?
  • It means go to Germany?
  • No, no, no, no.
  • Go to Netherlands?
  • No.
  • Go Dutch means each person pays for his or her half, or not half, for his or her part.
  • That's a lovely idiom, to go Dutch.
  • Now, if you want to go Dutch, you can decide now.
  • After this, you have to stand up and go to the cashier.
  • That is the place where you can make the payment.
  • Can I have the check, please?
  • Of course.
  • Here you are.
  • Thank you.
  • I'm ready to pay.
  • How would you like to pay?
  • Cash or credit?
  • Cash, please.
  • That'll be $80, please.
  • Here you are.
  • Thank you.
  • And here's your change and your receipt.
  • Thank you.
  • And that's it, guys.
  • I hope you've enjoyed this lesson.
  • I tried to touch the main points of the dialogues that you may come across when you are at a restaurant or when you're planning to go to a restaurant or when you're paying for the bill.
  • Also, I tried to use some situational dialogues.
  • so that you can see how to use them and you can feel more confident and comfortable with these new phrases.
