澳洲旅游英语lesson 07and 08

Jean: Your Crispy¹ Fish and …… your Garlic² Chicken and vegetables.
Mona: Oh dear.
Jean: Is there a problem?
Mona: There seems to be some mistake. I asked for no chillies. This chicken has chillies.
Jean: Oh, yes. I see. I’m sorry. I’ll get you another one straight away.
Jean: There was a slight mix up in the kitchen. We’re very busy tonight. Here is your Garlic Chicken without the chillies. I apologise³ for any inconvenience.
Mona: No worries.
Jean: Would you like anything else to drink?
Mona: No, thanks.
Jack⁴: I’m right, thank you.
Jack: That was delicious, thank you.
Jean: I’m glad you liked it, sir.
Now, would you like to see the dessert menu?
Jack: No, thanks.
Mona: Just the bill, thank you.
Mona: Waitress, there seems to be some mistake.
Jean: Is there a problem?
Mona: I don’t understand what this extra $2 is for. Is it a tip?
Jean: Let me see. Ah, that’s for use of the towels.
Mona: The towels?
