Waiter: Good evening! Are you ready to order? Madam: Well, first, can you please tell me what is today’s soup? Waiter: It's bean soup. It's very good! Madam: OK. I'd like soup as a starter and then could I have veal scallop for my main course? Waiter: Is that with salad? Madam: With vegetables, please! Waiter: Certainly, madam! Lady: I like the same for my starter, please! And then I'd like spaghetti bolognaise for my main course. Waiter: And to you, sir? Sir: Could I have risotto as a starter, please? And then what is chicken Amalfi? Waiter: It's our specialty. It's chicken with a tomato and mushroom sauce. Sir: That sounds good! I’d like that, please! Waiter: And would you like something to drink? Sir: Mary, Anna, would you like wine? Madam: I'd love a glass of red wine. Waiter: The house wine? Madam: Yes, that’s fine, thanks! Lady: I just like some sparkling water. Sir: Okay, two glasses of the house red wine and a bottle of sparkling water, please! Waiter: Very good! Lady: They have very good desserts here, too. The ice cream is wonderful. Madam: Great! I love Italian ice cream. Sir: Me too!
