Letschti bi-n-i mit üsere 10jöhrige Tochter is Reschtorant gange.
Recently I went to a restaurant with our 10-year-old daughter.

Das isch üses Gschpröch im Reschtorant:
Here is our conversation in the restaurant:

“Ich möcht s Tagesmönü  und üsi Tochter möchti gärn s Chindermenü.”
I want a  normal meal and our kid wants the kids' menu.
​
De Chällner muschteret üsi Tochter und seit: “Isch si Nüüni?”
Waiter looks at kid  "Is she 9?"

Ich: “Nei, si isch scho Zähni gsi.”
Me: "No, she was already 10."

Chällner: “Es tuet mir leid, s Chindermenü isch nur für Chind bis Nüüni.”
Waiter: "Sorry, Kid meal is only for kids up to 9 years old"

 “Ohh, OK. Hend si e-n-alternativs Menü?”
"Ommm, OK. Do you have an alternate meal?"

Chällner: “Nei.”
Waiter: "No."

“Mini Tochter wünscht aber nume s Chinder Chicken Nuggets Menü mit Pommfrit.”
"But my daughter would only like the KIDS Chick Nugget meal with fries.”

Chällner: “S Chindermenü isch nur für Chind bis Nüüni, ohni Uusnahm.”
Waiter: "Kids menu is only for up to 9 years old. No exceptions.

Sie mues öppis anders us em normale Menü wähle.”
She'll have to order something else from the  normal menu."

Ich “Aber si het kei Luscht uf di andere Sache.”
"But you don't have anything that she wants from your normal menu."
​
Chällner: “Es tuet mir würklich Leid, aber do cha-n-i nüüt mache.”
Waiter: "Sorry but I can't do anything."

Wie würdisch du i dere Situation reagiere?
How would you react in this situation?



  •  “Ok, denn bitte d Schpaghetti Bolognese für mini Tochter.”
  •     “Ok, so the spaghetti Bolognese for my daughter, please.”

  •  “Das isch jo de Bescht! Cha-n-i bitte mit em Schef rede?”
  •  “That’s unbelievable! Can I speak the boss, please?”

  • “Goht s eigentlich no? Wenn ihne d Wünsch vo irne Chunde so gliich sind, denn gö-mer halt a-n-e-n-andere Ort go ässe.”
  •  “What’s going on? When you don’t care about the wishes of your clients, we’ll go to another place to eat.”
