Enjoy the third week of practicing your English conversation at a restaurant.  All this practice makes me want to go out and dine.  What about you? Are you ready to dine out?

I have found that the more I go out to eat. The more experience I gain by interacting with different individuals.  Take note and practice every day.

The reason why I am drilling the different vocabulary words and phrases is that it is imperative to get comfortable and familiar with your everyday life experiences.  And, dining out is one of them.  Let’s get busy.

Kitchen - a room or place equipped for cooking.

Me:  The kitchen seems very busy tonight.
Waiter:  Yes, it’s very busy.  It must be because of the football game; it usually gets very busy this season.

Plate - shallow, usually circular dish, often of earthenware or porcelain, from which food is eaten.

Me:  Excuse me, my I, please get another plate?  I would like to share my steak with my wife.
Waiter:  Yes, I will bring you a plate right away.
   
Fork - an instrument having two or more prongs or tines, for holding, lifting, etc., as an implement for handling food. 

Me:  I am missing my fork, can you please get me one?
Waiter:  Here you go, sorry about that.  Enjoy your meal.

Knife - an instrument for cutting, consisting essentially of a thin, sharp-edged, metal blade fitted with a handle.

Me:  Wow, look at the sharpness of this knife.  It will surely cut right through my steak.
Waiter:  Yes, they are very sharp.  Be careful, and enjoy your meal.

Spoon - a utensil for use in eating, stirring, measuring, ladling, etc., consisting of a small, shallow bowl with a handle.

Me:  I am enjoying my soup with this big and round spoon.
Wife:  So am I, it is a great spoon.  Isn’t it?

Napkin - a small piece of cloth or paper, usually square, for use in wiping the lips and fingers and to protect the clothes while eating.

Me:  After eating this Barbeque, I surely need this napkin.  What a mess.
Waiter:  Here are a couple more napkins, it looks like you are going to need them.

In summary, hope you enjoyed the three weeks of restaurant vocabulary words and phrases.  Have fun practicing and feel free to contact me with any questions.  Happy dining.
