Order a meal

Produce a short spoken response with the grammar and vocabulary from this Tappa.

Speaking task

Role-play a complete café or restaurant order. Greet the server, order at least three items, specify one quantity or change, ask a price, respond to one question, and ask for the bill.

Then change roles and use different food.

  • Vorrei due etti di prosciutto.· I would like two hundred grams of ham.
  • Prendo una zuppa e un’insalata.· I will have a soup and a salad.
  • Senza cipolla, per favore.· Without onion, please.
  • Avete piatti vegetariani?· Do you have vegetarian dishes?

Model language

Plan with keywords, not a complete script. Speak once slowly for accuracy, then a second time with more natural rhythm.

  • Quanto costa il menù?· How much does the menu cost?
  • Da bere prendo dell’acqua.· I will have some water to drink.
  • No, grazie, non desidero altro.· No, thank you, I do not want anything else.
  • Possiamo avere il conto?· Can we have the bill?
