“Split” means that two or more people will share/divide
one order of food.
Almost – I just have a couple of questions.
19. IS EVERYTHING OK?
While you are eating, the waiter/waitress will often come to
your table and ask this question to check if you need
anything.
Yes, everything’s fine, thanks.
It’s all delicious!
Could we have some more water, please?
“Could we have…” is a polite way to ask for something.
Actually, I’m still waiting for my side dish.
A “side dish” is a small portion of food that
accompanies the main meal.
To be honest, my food is kinda cold. Could you heat it
up?
“To be honest…” is a diplomatic way to introduce a
complaint or negative comment.
20. CAN I GET YOU ANYTHING
ELSE?
The waiter/waitress will probably ask you this after you
have finished eating.
Two decaf coffees, please.
“Decaf coffee” is coffee with no caffeine.
Just the check, please.
The “check” is the list of items and the total price to
pay.
Could I have a look at the dessert menu?
I’ll have a slice of apple pie.
A “slice” is a single piece of a pie, cake, or pizza.
No thanks – I think we’re just about done.
