B: Dobrý deň. Áno, prosím si nesýtenú minerálnu vodu. A môžem dostať menu prosím? Aká je vaša ponuka dňa?
A: Here is the menu. Today’s specials are fried mushrooms with baked potatoes, segedinsky goulash, or chicken with rice. I’ll bring your drink right away.
A: Nech sa páči, tu je menu. Ponukou dňa sú vyprážané šampióny s pečenými zemiakmi, segedínsky guláš alebo kura s ryžou.
B: Thank you. I’ll order the chicken with rice. Does it come with any vegetables?

A: No, only a garnish
A: Nie, iba oblohou.
B: Ok. Then I’d like to also order a small plate of salad from the salad bar.
B: Dobre. Rad by som si teda ešte objednal malý tanier šalátu zo šalátoveho baru.
A: That will be fine.
A: V poriadku.A: How was your lunch? Would you like anything else?
A: Ako vám chutil obed? Dáte si ešte niečo?
B: I’ll have a cup of coffee. Can I look at the menu again to see what you have for dessert?

A: Of course. Here you are.
A; Samozrejme. Nech sa páči.
B: Yes, I’d like coffee with milk, and a piece of strudel.
B: Áno, rád by som si objednal kávu s mliekom a kus štrúdly.
