UNIT 9

AT THE RESTAURANT

The next day at 12 o'clock Mr. Jackson and Zotov came to Mr. Lipman's office where they signed the contract. After that they all went to the Savoy Restaurant which was not far from Mr. Lipman's office.

Then they came into the restaurant they took off their hats and coats and left them in the cloak-room. Then they went upstairs.

The head-waiter showed them the table that Mr. Lipman had reserved. A waiter who was standing near by came up to the table to take their order. He put the menu on the table in front of each of them.

"I'm afraid my English is not good enough to order lunch," Jackson said. "Besides I don't know much about English meals, so it's difficult for me to make my choice."

"All right," smiled Mr. Lipman. "I think we'll start with drinks. What would you like to drink, gentlemen?"

Jackson: Gin and tonic with lemon for me, please.

Zotov: The same for me.

Lipman: Gin or whisky for you, John?

Cave: Whisky, please.

Lipman: Well, what shall we eat?

Zotov: There is a large choice of dishes on the menu and it's difficult for us to decide. Is there any dish you can recommend?

Lipman: I recommend oxtail soup. They cook it very well here. Then we can have roast-beef, beef- steak, mixed grill, or fish. And vegetables, of course. What do you say to that?

Jackson: Very good. I'll have oxtail soup and roast-beef.

Zotov: No soup for me. I'll have only mixed grill.

Cave: I'll take the same, Henry, and don't forget to order a bottle of red wine. It'll go nicely with meat.

Lipman: Oh, no. I remember it.

Waiter: What will you have for dessert, sir?

Lipman: Fruit salad and ice- cream. And we'll finish with black coffee and

brandy.

Cave: Yes, of course.

Waiter: Very good, sir. (They have lunch. Then the waiter serves black coffee and brandy).

Cave: I'd like to drink a toast to good business. And I must say, gentlemen, I'm very pleased with the contract we've signed.We look forward to doing more business with you in the future.

Jackson: This is to good business and more contracts.

(After lunch.)

Jackson: We've had an enjoyable time here. It's been a pleasure, gentlemen. Thank you.

(Mr. Lipman paid the bill. They put on their hats and coats downstairs and left the restaurant.)
