The Menu
Misé’s Italian Restaurant
Welcome to my Italian Restaurant! Sit down, enjoy some pre-dinner drinks,
peruse the menu and have a wonderful meal.
This is, of course, a short version of what an Italian restaurant menu has to offer.
Anyway, asking for a menu and having no idea what those dishes are can be a rather
painful moment.
So, this will be the first of many menus I shall be sharing with you. I want you to
feel comfortable using English anywhere you happen to go in the world. And
that involves finding your way around an Italian menu. Have fun!
