The server never let my glass get empty. She was very aware of all of my needs. 6. She always answered me with yes mam and no mam. 7. Our food came out exactly on time and all of my requests were answered quickly. 8. My server knew the answers to all of my questions regarding the menu. 9. She asked me questions using would and could in a very respectful manner. 10. My server was able to carry seven plates of food without any problems.

What for?
In most countries, a waiter or waitress is paid significantly lower than the minimum wage. That means that when they are working at the restaurant, they completely depend on the tips that they earn. Many times people will tip an average of 15% of the total of the bill, but when a server really does an excellent job, the customer will tip 20% of the total bill. This is a high honor and shows the waiter or waitress did an outstanding job. Not tipping a server is considered extremely rude and shows disrespect. The minimum that a server should earn from tips is 10%.

Read the following passage that explains how a server should be in order to receive a good tip. Look up any new words in a dictionary. The best advice to be a good server is to have a lot of knowledge of the menu and to be able to answer a persons questions quickly and correctly. A person is likely to tip more money when they feel like they did not have to make too many decisions. They were guided on choosing the best foods and the best drinks to accentuate the flavor of the food. For example, fish and light meats, such as chicken and veal, are accompanied by a dry white wine. If you have a dish that you like the best, then do not be afraid to recommend it to the client. But always be sure to be able to describe the food in great detail. Use adjectives to describe things, for example, juicy, mouthwatering, and delicious. One of the most important things is to be passionate about the menu. Try everything on it so that you can answer any question about the taste of a particular dish. If you see that customers are having a difficult time deciding, then engage them in open ended questions, such as Are you in the mood for meat entre or pasta? If they say pasta, tell them about the pasta on the menu that you find the most appetizing and explain it to them. For example, The shrimp and scallop fettuccini alfredo is made with a spicy red wine sauce and tossed with fresh, diced tomatoes and cilantro. It is one of my favorite dishes.

Everyone makes mistakes. Sometimes a server will forget something or the kitchen will be out of the food that has been ordered.

UNIT 4 Time to read


Read the following article about a high profile Italian chef who reviewed the food of a popular Italian restaurant. I had recently been invited to a summer picnic hosted by the Olive Branch. Not only do I love picnics but since I am an expert at Italian cuisine, I have always wanted to know if the Olive Branch really does offer a genuine Italian dining experience. I arrived at the picnic in great spirits. It was a beautiful summer evening, and everyone had their blankets out on the lawn watching as the caterers set up the dinner buffet. Soon we were served. They brought sausage soup. It is supposed to be a creamy broth with sausage, potatoes and green beans. When I tasted it, I enjoyed the flavor, but it was not Toscana soup as I know it. I just did not recognize it as being Italian. Shortly after, they brought out the Roman pasta that is cooked with green beans, tomatoes and olive oil, then tossed with noodles and a white herb sauce. Unfortunately, the sauce was bland and the beans were undercooked. Undercooked beans taste like grass. I dont know why they cooked it that way. It was all wrong. Next the dessert arrived. It was Tiramisu, a creamy dessert made with liquor and served chilled. It was really bad. The texture was chewy, and they had used too much liquor. It had a very strong taste. I was disappointed by the quality of the food, so to console myself I ordered a coke. My conclusion is that the Olive Branch does not offer a genuine Italian dining experience.

Activity

Answer the following questions about the previous reading using complete sentences.

2.

What kind of food does the Olive Branch specialize in? What is the name of the soup that she ordered? How did she say Toscana soup should be? How did she describe the entre? Why did she not enjoy the dessert?

What for?
It is very common for people to look for restaurant reviews either online or in a magazine before they decide where they want to go to eat. It can be very disappointing to spend your time and money in a place where the food and/or service is below standard. For that reason, restaurant reviews are used regularly to help people decide where to go for their next dining experience.

Activity

Write three or four sentences explaining whether you would or would not go to the Olive Branch after reading the review.

Glossary: Cuisine: a dish that represents a particular culture. Genuine: authentic or pure. Great spirits: that everyone was happy. Caterer: a person that prepares and serves food at parties and events.

Buffet: when food is placed before you and you can see what you are going to order. Broth: the liquid part of the soup. Bland: to not have any flavor. Chewy: when a food sticks to your teeth. Console: to comfort.

It is sad when something thats supposed to give you pleasure can instead give you headaches. Thats exactly what happens when you try to read something that has been badly written.

Read the following refusal to an email invitation to an upcoming baby shower. Dear Brandi, I have recently received your Evite, and I would like to thank you so much for the invitation that you sent regarding your baby shower. I am very grateful that you thought about me during this very special time in your life. Unfortunately, I will not be able to attend.

I wish you a very happy and joyful baby shower, and I will be thinking about you on that special day. Once again, thank you for thinking about me. Best wishes, Dana

When you are invited, you can either accept or refuse, and in either case you have to be polite. When youre invited, you need to make sure you show appreciation to the person inviting you and wants you to be part of their plans. When you have to refuse, you need to give a solid reason and show sorrow for not being able to accept. Also show interest for another opportunity. When you invite, you should try to be flexible because you dont know other peoples prior plans.

Hands on!
Restaurant review Purpose
With this project, you will be able to create an article that shows a critical review of a restaurant. You will have learned vocabulary related to food and have a good understanding of good service in a restaurant. By the end of this unit, you will have the necessary skills to write a comprehensive and opinionated article about a restaurant.

Theory and practice


The different phases of the project throughout the lessons (from Hands on! 4A to Hands on! 4D) should guide you on how to get started on your article. It is important for you to pay close attention to the project phases as you develop each lesson because every phase of the project will get you closer to the final product, which is writing the article.

Development
You should be able to see that every phase of the project is connected in content with the lesson where it appears. The reason why the different phases are related to the lessons or activities is because the project should be used as an indicator of what you are able to do in the activities developed in that particular lesson and to get closer to the final project. By developing the activities assigned in the lessons, you have advanced in your ability to competently finish the Hands on! project. This unit has taught you new vocabulary related to food in restaurants, showed the different expressions used in a restaurant, how to act properly at a restaurant, and many more important things. The contents of each Hands on! activity helped you to prepare for writing a restaurant review.

Wrap up
In conclusion, it would be very useful for you to review the contents that you have developed throughout the unit so that you have a fresher idea of what kind of information and grammar points could be included in your final project. Now that you have successfully completed this project, youve become more knowledgeable in your ability to discuss, compare and criticize food and service from any restaurant.
