Amy: Excuse me, I need to let you know that I'm allergic to peanuts. My friend with me is also vegetarian.

Lucas: Of course, thank you for telling me. I'll make sure we take good care of both of you.

Amy: Thank you. We were thinking about the Thai green curry. Does this dish contain any nuts or dairy?

Lucas: The green curry does include coconut milk, and the paste sometimes contains peanuts. I wouldn't recommend it for you.

Amy: I see. Is there a vegetarian option that is completely nut-free?

Lucas: Yes, our grilled vegetable platter is nut-free and vegan. It would be a safe and delicious choice for both of you.

Amy: That sounds good. What about the stir-fried noodles? Do they contain any peanuts?

Lucas: They usually do, but I can ask the kitchen to prepare them without peanuts and use a separate pan to avoid cross-contamination.

Amy: That would be wonderful. Cross-contamination is actually something I'm very concerned about.

Lucas: I completely understand. It's quite serious, so please let me note down your allergy carefully and double-check everything with the chef.

Amy: Please do. Also, could you let the kitchen know about my allergy? My friend doesn't eat pork either — is this dish halal?

Lucas: Let me check the ingredients with our chef right away. I'll be back in just a moment.

Amy: Take your time. We really appreciate your help.

Lucas: I just confirmed — the noodles can be made without peanuts and without pork. The chef will use a clean wok.

Amy: That's a big relief. Could you also make it without oyster sauce? My friend is actually vegan.

Lucas: Absolutely. We can substitute it with soy sauce. Would that work for your friend?

Amy: Yes, that's perfect. One more question — are the spring rolls gluten-free? My friend is also lactose intolerant, so we need to be careful.

Lucas: Our spring rolls are made with rice paper, so they are naturally gluten-free. There is no dairy in them at all.

Amy: Great. What about the dessert? The chocolate cake looks good, but does it contain any nuts?

Lucas: The chocolate cake does contain nuts. However, our mango sorbet is nut-free, dairy-free, and egg-free. It's a great choice for both of you.

Amy: The sorbet sounds perfect. Thank you so much for all your help and patience.

Lucas: It's my pleasure. Your safety comes first. I'll double-check everything with the kitchen before I bring your order.

中文翻譯

Amy: 不好意思,我要讓你知道我對花生過敏。我的朋友也吃素。

Lucas: 當然,謝謝你告訴我。我會確保好好照顧你們兩位。

Amy: 謝謝。我們在考慮點泰式綠咖哩。這道菜含有任何堅果或乳製品嗎?

Lucas: 綠咖哩確實含有椰奶,醬料有時也含有花生。我不建議你點這道菜。

Amy: 我明白了。有沒有完全不含堅果的素食選項?

Lucas: 有的,我們的烤蔬菜拼盤不含堅果,而且是純素的。這對你們兩位來說是安全又美味的選擇。

Amy: 聽起來不錯。那炒麵呢?裡面含有花生嗎?

Lucas: 通常有,但我可以請廚房不加花生、並使用另一個鍋子,以避免交叉污染。

Amy: 那太好了。交叉污染其實是我非常擔心的事情。

Lucas: 我完全理解。這很嚴重,所以請讓我仔細記下你的過敏情況,並和廚師再次確認所有細節。

Amy: 麻煩你了。另外,可以請你通知廚房我的過敏情況嗎?我朋友也不吃豬肉——這道菜是清真的嗎?

Lucas: 讓我馬上去和我們的廚師確認食材。我很快就回來。

Amy: 不急。我們真的很感謝你的幫忙。

Lucas: 我剛確認了——麵條可以不加花生也不加豬肉。廚師會使用乾淨的炒鍋。

Amy: 這讓我鬆了一口氣。請問也可以不加蠔油嗎?我朋友其實是純素食者。

Lucas: 當然可以。我們可以用醬油來替換。這樣對你朋友來說可以嗎?

Amy: 是的,這樣很完美。我還有個問題——春捲是無麩質的嗎?我朋友還有乳糖不耐症,所以我們需要特別注意。

Lucas: 我們的春捲是用米紙做的,所以天然無麩質。裡面完全不含乳製品。

Amy: 太好了。那甜點呢?巧克力蛋糕看起來不錯,但裡面有堅果嗎?

Lucas: 巧克力蛋糕確實含有堅果。不過,我們的芒果雪葩不含堅果、乳製品和蛋。這對你們兩位來說都是很好的選擇。

Amy: 雪葩聽起來很完美。非常感謝你的幫忙和耐心。

Lucas: 這是我的榮幸。你的安全最重要。在我上菜之前,我會和廚房再次確認所有細節。
