Whether in un restaurante elegante con familia or en grupo having a sandwich in un café, people love the ambiance of small cafés and restaurants. As a visitor to a Hispanic or Latino country, you would have to be able to understand a menu in Spanish. This not only includes a knowledge of food vocabulary, but a cultural understanding of whether you are paying for an entire meal at one fixed price or, more commonly, as separate items. You might also see el menú del día or cubierto which sets a fixed price for the specialty of the day. You are going to develop a menu in Spanish to give yourself practice in reading and understanding menus.
