So you’ve had whatever drink or food you ordered, and now you want to leave ASAP because a chain-smoker just settled down at the next table. You will find that just running at this point is not appreciated. So join us for this easy German lesson and learn how to get the waiter’s attention, pay, give a tip and leave with minimum commotion.
Special focus in this lesson are the German numbers over 29, and we’ll also see the past (preterite) form of the German verb haben. Today’s culture point features a complete run-down of all useful German phrases you’ll need when at a restaurant, café or bar in Germany, including tips on e. g. how to get a German waitress’s attention so she can get you some delicious German beer.
