Hello, everybody, and welcome back to Culeps. I'm Andrew. And I'm Indiana. So today we have a new

Real Talk lesson for you. And Real Talk is our series where we teach you practical, everyday

to tell the server about them when ordering. From this example, we're going to be able to

learn how you can do this too.

Then after we listen to the example, Andrew and I are going to go back through the conversation

to explain some of the key expressions.
