Everything looks so good. What would you suggest?

Everything looks so good. What would you suggest?

1. You expressed yourself well here. There is nothing to correct, so this is an alternative expression we could use in this context - "amazing".
How about trying our garlic butter shrimp? It's a customer favorite and the perfect way to begin your meal.

That sounds delicious. I like shrimps and some garlic flavored foods. Is it a plate dish, or should I order other main meal such as bread or rice? What drink goes best with the garlic butter shrimp?

1. "Shrimp" is an uncountable noun, so we do not need to pluralize it.
2. "garlic-flavored" is a compound adjective, and we usually hyphenate such adjectives.
3. "other main meal" is a singular and countable noun phrase, so we should use the article "an" with "other".
Yes, the shrimp comes with rice and seasonal vegetables. I would recommend a white wine with the shrimp. I can get you a wine list if you would like and a basket of our homemade bread..

I got it. Please bring me a bottle of this white wine. If rice is on the plate, that's all I need. I also want to have a sweet after having the shrimp plate. Could you tell me what kind of dessert you have available?

Tonight we have your choice of Cheesecake, Boston Cream Pie, and Bananas Foster or you could choose a sample plate with a smaller piece of all three desserts.

That's great! I definitely choose the sample plate. Does it go well with coffee?

Oh, yes. Certainly. I'll bring you a bottle of the1945 Romanée-Conti Grand Cru, the garlic butter shrimp, with a sample plate and a cup a coffee after your meal. Is there anything else you'd like?

That's all I ordered. I'm looking forward to the garlic butter shrimp, and the sample plate as well.
