SARAH Good evening! Welcome to "Nona restaurant "!

Can I start you off with

some drinks while you learn our menu? We have a fantastic selection of house-made
sodas and fresh fruit juices, or perhaps some sparkling water with a squeeze of citrus?
LIAM (Eyes glued to the menu) Wow, this looks amazing! So many choices... I'm
torn between brunch that includes roasted vegetables and the herb-crusted chicken
with gravy and creamy mashed potatoes.
CHLOE (Leaning over Liam's shoulder) Oooh, that chicken sounds incredible! I
have never tried it before. I bet the mashed potatoes are whipped to perfection.
AMARA Decisions, decisions! I'm drawn to the vegetarian option - the lentil
Shepherd's pie with a side dish of steamed seasonal greens. It sounds so hearty and
no processed food at all.
SARAH Excellent choices!. The herb-crusted chicken is a classic for a reason - we
use fresh herbs from our own rooftop garden, and the mashed potatoes are indeed
whipped to a delightful cloud-like texture.
LIAM (Smiling) Decisions getting even tougher here!
CHLOE Maybe we can ask about portion sizes? Sharing a side dish might be a good
idea.
SARAH Absolutely! Our portions are quite generous. Sharing a side is a great way to
experience multiple flavors. The Shepherd's pie is a fantastic choice for vegetarians -
we use a rich lentil blend with a hint of smoky paprika, and the steamed greens are
always locally sourced and perfectly cooked.
AMARA (Nodding enthusiastically) That sounds incredible! Maybe I could even add
a side of grilled halloumi cheese for a bit of protein.
SARAH A wonderful idea! We source our halloumi from a local cheesemaker - it
grills beautifully and would pair perfectly with the Shepherd's pie.
LIAM Alright, I'm convinced! I'm going for the pan-seared salmon. With a side of
those creamy mashed potatoes, of course.
CHLOE Me too! The herb-crusted chicken sounds too good to pass up. Mashed
potatoes for me as well, please.
AMARA (Smiling brightly) The Shepherd's pie with grilled halloumi sounds like a
perfect match for me. Thanks for all the amazing recommendations, Sarah!
SARAH My pleasure! Is there anything else I can get you to start with perhaps? We
have a selection of house-made artisan breads and dips, or some fresh calamari
fritters that are a real crowd-pleaser.
LIAM (Looking around the table at his friends) Maybe we could share a basket of
those calamari fritters as an appetizer? Sounds like a fun way to kick things off!
CHLOE Great idea, Liam! I can't wait to dig in!
SARAH Fantastic! I'll get those coming right up for you, along with your drinks.
Enjoy your meal!
