Mr. Johns and his family decided to visit a restaurant. It was a pleasant Sunday evening when finally they went. The whole family was quite excited. Everyone planned to order his\her favourite dish. Mr. Johns son Jack and daughter Elizabeth chose their favourite place to sit. It was near beautiful and colourful fountain. A lot of people were enjoying eating at that time. The environment of the restaurant was pleasant. Soft music in low volume was being played. There was a large sized LCD on which people were watching a football match.

Mr. Johns chose a peaceful corner. The whole family was eager to give order. The waiter came and greeted Mr. Johns. Good Evening Sir! What do you want to take? Waiter gave them menu card as well. Mr. Johns asked his family about the food and beverages items they wanted to take. Jack, his son wanted to eat fried fish , Elizabeth his daughter wanted to eat vegetable rice, his wife was also interested in eating fish.

Waiter told them that fried fish was not available at that moment. Jack and his mum got upset and finally agreed to take beef stacks. Jack was still unhappy and insisted on fish. Waiter told them that in that case they had to wait for another half an hour. His mum tried her best to convince him and promised to make it at home next day. Jack gave his consent and got ready to take beef stacks. So, Mr. Johns gave order accordingly.

After fifteen minutes waiter brought their order. They started eating. Besides that they were also busy in discussing their upcoming family events. Jack enjoyed stacks but Elizabeths rice dish was not up to her expectation but she enjoyed the desert. After eating Mr. Johns paid the bill, Jack requested his father to give more tip to the waiter. Jack and Elizabeth decided to visit the restaurant again with their friends and they left with sweet memories.
