En el Restaurante

PROYECTO DEl CAPITULO 5 BUEN VIAJE

OVERVIEW

You and your friends have just won a free trip to Spain! You are excited about visiting this beautiful, diverse, friendly country that is so historically and culturally rich and is the cradle of the Spanish language. You are particularly excited about the opportunity to use your newly acquired Spanish language skills, but are somewhat concerned about your ability to communicate, especially when it comes to that most important and enjoyable activity - eating! Will you be able to order food in Spanish at a restaurant or will you starve? What kind of food do they eat? Do they eat tacos, enchiladas and guacamole, like Mexicans do? What happens if I think I am ordering noodle soup and they bring me cow brains? Do they eat meals at the same times we usually do? What kind of currency do they use and will I know if something is too expensive?

THE MENU

You must research the foods from the country you have been assigned. Include the following in the menu:
-Foods for breakfast, lunch, dinner, drink (non-alcoholic) and dessert seven items each.
-The price of each item
-The menu must be colorfully illustrated through out (at least seven drawings)
-Have the restaurant Spanish name; include the address, phone number and email of your restaurant.
-The menu must be completely in Spanish.

THE SKIT
You are to create a skit in Spanish about a restaurant experience. The dialogue must include entering the restaurant, asking for the special, ordering off the menu, asking the ingredients of the special, and eating and paying for the meal. You must also include one problem, i.e. problem with the ordering of the food, problem with paying the bill, problem with the order etc. All members of the group must speak equal amounts of time throughout the skit.
