0:07 In this lesson, we will talk about phrases that you can use while placing your order at a restaurant.
0:19 Can I take your order now?
0:22 Yes. I'll have the house salad, steak, and mashed potatoes.
0:26 How do you like your steak? Rare, medium, or well-done?
0:30 I prefer medium-well. And, please, use very little salt.
0:35 Sure. Would you like anything to drink with that?
0:38 Do you have iced tea?
0:40 Yes, we do. Sweetened or not?
0:43 No sugar, please. But do add a twist of lime.
0:53 Are you ready to order?
0:55 Yes. I am. I would like to have two eggs and a side order of ham.
1:01 How do you want your eggs? Boiled, fried, poached, or scrambled?
1:05 I’ll have them fried, please.
1:07 How do you like them, sunny side up or over-easy?
1:10 Sunny side up.
1:12 Anything else?
