Хэллоу!

Today, we're going to a restaurant. Let’s look at the menu! I gathered some dishes from different restaurants, so the names and prices are real.

Some helpful phrases to make an order at a restaurant:

• Я буду квас.
• I'll have a kvass.

• Можно щи?
• Could I have the shchi?

• Окрошку, пожалуйста.
• Okroshka, please.

Note that in all these phrases you need to use the noun in the accusative case!
