Hello, I am Yoshi from NILS Japanese language school. Many of our students in our programs say that they don’t have any knowledge in the Japanese language before coming to Japan. However, they actally know some of the useful phrases and expressions. I would like to show you some expressions used at restaurants in Japan.

Vocabulary
1. メニュー　menu
2. 注文（ちゅうもん）　order
3. ランチ　lunch
4. 定食（ていしょく）　a set meal

Expressions
1. メニューをおねがいします。　Bring me a menu, please.
2. …はありますか。　Do you have …?
3. わたしは…にします。　I’ll have ….
4. …をおねがいします。　Give me …, please.
5. おいくらですか。　How much is this?

Hope you will use a few of the above when you come to Japan!
