Not all of the items you chose would actually appear on a real menu. If you've any Mexican restaurants near your home, stop in and ask to see their menu. They may even have a take-out version that you can take home.

it doesn't have to be like a real menu, though.

lee ying · #4 February 27, 2009, 06:20 PM

what you really need?*_*
restaurant name?
or another menu?
tell me please ....

CrOtALiTo · #5 February 27, 2009, 07:59 PM

I have a real menu.

# 1 Pechuga con queso.

# Pechuga poot chot con queso

# Pechuga de pollo con queso y jamón

my menu doesn't have to be a real one. I'm just asking to check my spelling.

**Rusty** · #7 February 28, 2009, 08:37 AM

I checked spelling and offered suggestions. I refrained from changing some things, mentioning instead that some items on your menu were not too realistic.

You can't go wrong with a visit to a Mexican restaurant to see what's on a real menu. I think it would be a good exercise.

Jessica · #8 February 28, 2009, 04:36 PM

I would try to look for a Mexican restaurant, but we don't have time. Anyways, I don't think we have one. We don't go out much and we've never been to a Mexican restaurant. Actually, I've been to one before but I don't remember when, where, and the name of the restaurant.

Anyways, I made some changes. See if you like it now, besides the fact it's not a real menu.

everything seems that is ok, but I see some mistakes.
© Las camarones – $3.99
© El perro caliente – $1.99 it doesn`t have a translation into spanish.
in fact, in mexico we call this like in usa: hot dog.
© La carne de cerdo – $2.50

Deserts
© Las galletas – $1

jchen , You has been better.

Jessica · #10 March 01, 2009, 08:47 AM

Okay, it's los camarones.
As for hotdog, on the additional vocab sheet we got, it is translated as el perro caliente.

lee ying · #11 March 01, 2009, 08:57 AM

yes. but we don`t ask a perro caliente on the street. we ask a hot dog.
in Mexico you can see too many hod dog`s car.

yes, you`re right, it is traslated as perro caliente. it`s weird to ask a perro caliente in *_*the street.

Jessica · #12 March 01, 2009, 01:12 PM

oh ok. thanks for the info.

So I can call my restaurant El Restaurante de Clipart??

**Rusty** · #13 March 01, 2009, 07:55 PM

You wouldn't want the preposition in the title. That would suggest that you serve clipart.

Jessica · #14 March 04, 2009, 08:02 PM

ok.

this is what I got:

30/30.

sosia · #15 March 10, 2009, 07:59 AM

Keep on!

Nice picuture Lee ying. I want to add something about the hot dogs. In fact in some places of the Mexican Republic. The people call to the hot dogs as is normally translate to the Spanish. Perros Calientes. But anyhow is most used the word hot dogs for the usages that come from the United States. Then the people is odd in use the word in question.

Then I would be named the hot dog (Perro Caliente). Yes you do. But you need to have a simple habit to say the word of correctly way.
