II. Read the text and questions below. Choose the correct answer.
To: The Manager of Mezzo Mash Restaurant
Dear Sir,
Last Tuesday evening I went with two friends to your restaurant for my 18th birthday. I’d booked the table for
eight o’clock and we arrived about ten minutes late, but that was not a problem. The waiter, who was very polite,
showed us to our table and we studied the menu. I ordered a fish pie and my friends ordered some salads.
However, after about fifteen minutes, the waiter informed us that there was no more fish pie. He apologised and
suggested ordering something else. I looked at the menu again and decided to have the same as my friends - a
salad.
When the food came, it was very good. After we’d finished, we decided to order some desserts. The waiter
said that, unfortunately, it was too late. There wasn’t enough time for us to order desserts. He said he was very
sorry but our table was reserved by another group at nine thirty and we would have to leave.
We paid the bill and left feeling very disappointed. It spoilt my birthday. Nobody told us when we arrived that
there was a time limit. It was very unsatisfactory and I doubt that we’ll go to your restaurant again.
Yours faithfully,
Martin Cary
