Transcript
Staff: Hello, Gino's.
Jamie: Hi. Can I book a table for tomorrow night, please?
Staff: How many people is it for?
Jamie: Four.
Staff: And what time would you like?
Jamie: About eight, eight thirty maybe?
Staff: Let's see ... We're pretty busy tomorrow, so I can do half past seven or nine.
Jamie: Oh. OK, then. Half seven, please.
Staff: What name is it?
Jamie: Jamie.
Staff: J-A- ...?
Jamie: M-I-E
Staff: OK, so that's a table for four at half past seven tomorrow evening.
Jamie: Great. Thanks! Bye.
Staff: Bye.
Staff: Hello, Gino's.
Jamie: Hi, I called earlier to book a table for four and I was wondering if I can make it for six instead?
Staff: Ah, what name was it?
Jamie: It's Jamie.
Staff: Table for four at half past seven. So you want to change it to 6 o'clock?
Jamie: No, sorry. Can I make it for six people?
Staff: Oh, I see. Sorry! That shouldn't be a problem. I can move you to a bigger table but it will be nearer the kitchen. Is that OK?
Jamie: No problem. Is it possible to change the time as well? Make it a little bit later?
Staff: Ah ... yeah, we can. Is eight OK for you?
Jamie: Perfect, thanks!
Staff: Lovely. See you tomorrow, then.
Jamie: Thanks! Bye!
Staff: Thanks. Ciao!

My favourite restaurant is called New Moon
My favourite restaurant is called La Lonja, it's near of the beach and we can see sundown. There are many dishes and the waitres are very humble
My favorite food comes from family restaurants., where you know ingredients are fresh and locally sourced
I often visit Japan's restaurants. I like sashimi from Tuna and salmon fish. They provide a lot of nutrition, such as vitamins and omega-3 fatty acids. Hmm, due to the raw fish, I think we should eat large quantities early on when infected with parasitic diseases.
I don't remember but I have a favorite one which is in a place located in front of the sea in "Montañita"
Had a great experience practicing English with the British Council! The real-life dialogues like booking a table and adjusting details really help with everyday conversation skills. It’s super useful to work through these interactions and get comfortable with speaking clearly, making requests, and responding to different situations. Looking forward to more sessions to keep improving!
