W: What an elegant place! But can we afford it?
M: I wanted the best restaurant for your birthday. And since you like French cuisine, here we are! Let’s begin with a cocktail and then look at the menu.
W: I’d like to start looking at the menu right away because it always takes me a year to make up my mind. Any recommendations?
M: I’ve never been here before, but everything is supposed to be excellent.
W: Look! They have snails! But I wouldn’t dare eat them. They might make me sick.
M: I feel the same way about snails. I think I’ll skip an hors d’oeuvre and have roast duck. It comes with vegetables and potatoes.
W: Sounds good, but since I love seafood, I’m going to take the salmon. And let’s have the salad after the entree, the way the French do!
M: Fine. We should have white wine with our dinner and champagne with dessert since this is a celebration.
W: Oh, and let’s not forget the cheese. There’s nothing like real French cheese.
M: I can see already that this is going to be an enjoyable—and delicious—evening.
