this looks like a cool place have you been here oh yeah I come here all the time I think you guys are going to like it there's one thing that's a little different about this restaurant I probably should tell you about now what is it hi welcome to Spiral Diner is it your first time here not for me I'm pretty much a regular here but these two gentlemen it is their first time do you mind explaining to them what is unique and different about this place sure Spiral Diner is actually a vegetarian restaurant so we
do not serve animal products or meat products but I think you will find you really like the food here wait you mean there's no meat here what are we supposed to eat class guys enough complaining I know you think you need meat at every meal you can have all the meat you want tonight at dinner all right we're going to try new things remember when I went to Saudi Arabia and Kuwait last year yeah I tried new things didn't I yeah like Camel's milk and just remember why we actually have come here so you guys
can practice your English and learn how to order food and drink at a restaurant Sultan do you remember how to ask the waitress for a food recommendation uh what's good come on man you could do this can you recommend something sure that's better remember in English if we want to be very polite when we ask questions it's a good idea to begin our questions with the word could and we always always need to use the magic word magic word yeah the magic word please good so Sultan why don't you try asking the waitress one more
time could you please recommend something to eat I would be happy to but first let me get you all started with drinks oh can I have a soda magic word oh can I have soda please thank you and you sir and I will have a coffee please thank you um could I have a glass of Camel's milk please I'm sorry we do not have camels milk on the menu today um how about a diet soda sure I'll be right back with your drinks okay just give you guys know what you want I think I need
a little help what do you get here I typically get the cowboy burger and it's probably my favorite wait Burger but there's no meat right yeah but they use a meat substitute what's a substitute substitute remember last week when I was sick for a few days and miss school yeah well the teacher who temporarily replaced me was a substitute so a substitute itute is something that replaces something else so if there is no meat what is it well the menu explains everything you have different choices for your hamburger patties they're all plant-based fine I think
I will get the cowboy burger what about you Abdul well I might be a little adventurous and get the homeless rat Abdul Hamas that's not adventurous try something new relax Dad how about home was for my appetizer and for my main dish I'll get the natural supro that's better thank you for waiting thank you thank you are you ready to order yeah uh why don't you start Abdul okay uh can I have the helmo for an appetizer and the natural supro for uh my main course and couldi get the Cowboy Burger how are you calling
she relax man I going to say guys guys we're in public all right that's actually a common mistake that Sultan made I find that students at all levels sometimes accidentally switch the subject pronouns he and she just be careful of that more importantly today I want us to focus on words like can could should may you mean models yes models but let's not worry about grammar terms right now just want us to continue using these words to make polite questions so Abdul why don't you try ordering Sultan's food one more time please okay uh could
he please get the cowboy Burger good but how about could he please get the cowboy Burger okay you mean without the s yes without the S could he please get the cowboy Burger thank you and for you sir may I please have the eight layer burrito sure my get these menus out of the way for you please sure thank you thank you thank you who had the eight layer burrito uh that was me thank you and the hummus with the nacho Supreme thank you and of course the cowboy Burger thank you let's eat bis this
is good what do you guys think actually it's pretty good what do you think San I have to admit this tastes as good as a real hamburger but you can't tell my dad that I have become a vegetarian don't worry modals which are a type of helping verb can be used to make very polite friendly questions to be very polite use the modals could and would in your request to ask if you can do something or receive something use could plus I plus a main verb and also an object for example could I please get
a glass of water notice in the second question we can also put please at the end of the sentence for example could I have a cheeseburger please to ask if someone can do something for you use would or could plus a main verb and an object for example would you open the door for me please or could you please pass me the salt now it's your turn I would like you to try making question at home first please politely ask for a glass of orange juice using [Music] could very good could I please have a
