Waiter:
Smile "Good evening! How are you doing tonight?"
Customer:
"I'm good, thank you. Just looking over the menu."
Waiter:
"Great! I’d be happy to help if you have any questions. Do you have any dietary preferences or
restrictions I should be aware of?"
Customer:
"Yes, I’m gluten-free and also avoid dairy."
Waiter:
"Got it! Let me guide you through some options. We have a fantastic quinoa salad that’s both gluten-
free and dairy-free. Would you like to hear more about it?"
Customer:
"That sounds good! What else do you recommend?"
Waiter:
"We also have a grilled chicken dish served with seasonal vegetables, and it can be made without the
sauce to keep it gluten-free and dairy-free. How does that sound?"
Customer:
"That sounds perfect! I’ll have the quinoa salad and the grilled chicken."
Waiter:
"Excellent choice! Just to confirm, would you like any dressing on the salad, or should I keep it
plain?"
Customer:
"Please keep it plain."
Waiter:
"Absolutely! I’ll make sure everything is prepared according to your dietary needs. Is there anything
else you’d like? Perhaps a drink?"
Customer:
"Just water, please."
Script for a waiter taking orders from a customer with cultural and religious dietary
influences:
**Scene: A bustling restaurant. The waiter approaches a table where a customer is reviewing
the menu.**
**Waiter:**
*Smile* "Good evening! How are you tonight?"
**Customer:**
"I'm doing well, thank you. Just looking at the menu."
**Waiter:**
"Take your time! Before you decide, do you have any dietary preferences or restrictions I
should be aware of?"
**Customer:**
"Yes, I follow a Halal diet."
**Waiter:**
"Thank you for letting me know! I can help you find suitable options. Our kitchen prepares
Halal-certified meats. Would you like to hear about our specials?"
**Customer:**
"Yes, please!"
**Waiter:**
"We have a grilled lamb dish that’s marinated in spices and served with a side of couscous,
which is Halal. We also have a vegetarian option, a chickpea and spinach stew, if that interests you."
**Customer:**
"The lamb sounds great, but what about sauces? Are they Halal too?"
**Waiter:**
"Absolutely! All our sauces are made from scratch, and I can confirm that they’re Halal as
well. Would you like to add any sides with your lamb?"
**Customer:**
"Could I have a side salad? Just make sure there’s no cheese, please."
**Waiter:**
"Of course! I’ll ensure it’s made without cheese. Would you like any dressing on the salad?"
**Customer:**
"Could I have it on the side, just to be safe?"
**Waiter:**
"That’s a great choice! I’ll put that in for you. Would you like something to drink?"
**Customer:**
"A glass of water, please."
**Waiter:**
"Got it! I’ll bring your order and make sure everything aligns with your dietary needs. Thank
you for your preferences, and if you need anything else, just let me know!"
**Customer:**
"Thank you very much!"
**Waiter:**
*Smile* "My pleasure! Your order will be out shortly."
