Ordering Food Delivery (исполнитель: ESL Podcast 373)
Order clerk: Hello, Torino’s Restaurant. Nancy: Hello, I’d like to place a delivery order. Order clerk: Can I have your address and the major cross streets, please? Nancy: It’s 1212 Main Street, and the nearest cross streets are Speedway and Highland. Order clerk: Okay, it looks like you’re in our delivery area. What would you like to order? Nancy: I’d like an order of spaghetti. Does [bad word] with any sides? Order clerk: You have a choice of soup or salad. Nancy: I’ll have the salad. Order clerk: Is that all? We have a $15 minimum for delivery orders. Nancy: In that case, I’ll also take an appetizer sampler plate. Order clerk: Okay, that’s one order of spaghetti and an appetizer sampler plate. You’re still $3 short. Would you like a drink or some dessert? Nancy: I’ll take an iced tea. Order clerk: All right, but you’re still a dollar short. Nancy: What can I get for a dollar? Order clerk: There’s nothing on the menu for a dollar, ma’am. Nancy: And you won’t deliver my $14 order? Order clerk: That’s our policy, ma’am. Nancy: All right, you win. Give me an order of bread. How long will that take? Order clerk: You should get your food in about an hour. Nancy: An hour?!? Order clerk: Yes, ma’am. You’ve ordered a lot of food and it takes time for us to prepare it.
