Today, we're diving into a real-life scenario that we all love, ordering food at a restaurant.

So, imagine you're at your favorite restaurant. You see the menu, but you're not sure how to order in English. Don't worry, I've got you covered.

We're going to practice together using a technique called shadowing English speaking practice.

Shadowing English speaking practice is when you repeat what you hear immediately after hearing it.

It helps improve your pronunciation and fluency.

Hi, I'm Sam. I've been with my boyfriend Alex for three amazing years.

Last year, we celebrated our second anniversary by relaxing at home, but this time, we wanted to do something different.

We decided to dine out at a French restaurant since we both love French cuisine.

The restaurant is quite famous, so we had to make a reservation a month in advance.

When we arrived, the host at the entrance greeted us with a friendly smile, checked our reservation, and led us to a beautifully set table.

After we sat down, a waiter came over to take our order.

First, let's look at some key phrases you'll need. Repeat after me.

Hello, I'd like to order, please.

Hello, I'd like to order, please.

Could I see the menu, please?

Could I see the menu, please?

What's today's special?

What's today's special?

I'll have the...

I'll have the...

Can I get this without...

Can I get this without...

Could we get this without...

Could we have the check, please?

Could we have the check, please?

Great. Now let's put these into action.

I'll play the role of a customer, and you can shadow my lines.

Ready?

Hello, I'd like to order, please.

Sure. Here's the menu.

What would you like to order?

Thank you.

What's today's special?

Today's special is grilled salmon with a side of vegetables.

That sounds great. I'll have the grilled salmon, please.

Would you like anything to drink with that?

Yes. Can I get this without the sauce?

Sure, no problem. Anything else?

No, that's all. Thank you.

After you've enjoyed your meal, it's time to ask for the check.

Could we have the check, please?

Sure. I'll bring it right over.

And there you have it.
