Daily Life - Complaining at a Restaurant (C0107)

A: Excuse me, waiter? Waiter!

B: Yes, sir? What can I do for you?

A: I’ve been sitting here for the past twenty minutes and no one has offered me a glass of water,brought any bread to the table and our appetizers 1 haven’t been served yet! You know, in this kind of establishment, I’d expect much better service.

B: I am sorry, sir. I’ll check on your order right away.

C: Relax honey, the place is busy tonight, but I’ve heard the food is amazing. Anyway...

B: Here you are, sir. The foie gras for the lady, and a mushroom soup for you.

A: Waiter, I ordered a cream of mushroom soup with asparagus. This soup is obviously too runny, and it’s over-seasoned. It’s completely inedible 2!

B: Okay, I do apologize for that. Can I bring you another soup, or would you like to order something else?

A: Take this foie gras back as well, it’s rubbery and completely overcooked. And look at the portion size! How can you charge twenty-five dollars for a sliver 3 of duck liver?

B: Right away... sir.

C: Honey come on! The foie gras was fine, why are you making such a big deal? Are you trying to get our meal comped again?

A: What do you mean? We are paying for this. If I’m shelling out my hard earned bucks 4, I expect value for money!

B: Here you are, sir. I hope it is alright now. The chef has prepared it specially 5 for you.

A: Yes, fine.

C: Honey, are you alright?
