What do you do if you want to order a item of the menu you can't pronounce/unsure of the correct pronunciation? Do you:
A: Change your order something else you know how to pronounce.
B: Have a stab at saying it anyway.
C: Point out what you want and ask the staff how to pronounce it correctly for future reference.
D: Just describe/point out what you want to order from the menu.
E: Clearly the fact you can pronounce the food means your in the wrong Resturant and leave for somewhere else. |

Combination of B and C.
Especilly when ordering tapas. Or I may just use the English for the dish
It feels silly saying gambas pil pil in my accent when I could just say garlic prawns please pal.  |

Im a B and C combination. My reading is not the best anyway. But I'm always happy to sacrifice some of my pride in exchange for knowlage and culture.
Plus when I'm back people will think I'm a pro (well if it weren't for the fact I'd probably forgotten by then). |
