Dinner at a Restaurant

In the picture we can see Mike and next to him Nick. There are snacks: tomato and cucumber salads, two salads "Stolichny", herring and jellied tongue; vodka and cranberry beverage. The waiter has got main course dishes on his tray.

Yesterday was my day out. My friend Nick and I had dinner at the restaurant. At one o’clock we were at the "Metropol". The waiter showed us in and we took a table by the window. The waiter brought us the menu and recommended some appetizers and dishes. For a snack we had soft caviar, jellied tongue and mixed green salads. The snacks looked very appetizing. Then Nick had chicken rice soup. I ordered beef-tea and a meat patty. For the main course we had fried pike-perch and new potatoes. Our dinner was delicious. For a drink we ordered special lemon beverage and for dessert pears, oranges and ice-cream. The waiter served us very well. We paid the bill, thanked the waiter and left the restaurant-hall. We had a hearty meal. I think the meals at the "Metropol" are very good. Then we went to the bar for coffee and cigarettes. Some guests ordered rich sweets, nuts and cocktails.
