At our reflection time last week, we decided that we would like to have dip on the menu at Discovery Time. So it was up to the waiters this week to prepare the classic onion dip and hummus. They also had to cut the celery into sticks and Miss Browne chopped the very crunchy carrots for us.
Part of the waiters job was to try to teach the customers not to double dip! There were some successes here. They also had to help the customers to only have a few pieces of the vegetables so that there was enough for everyone who wanted to try them.
Another part of the waiters job was to ask their customers about their meal at the cafe. We practised asking the question "Which dip did you like?" and then to ask for more information by saying "Why was that your favourite dip?" Here are some of the replies including "I liked the hummus because it has lemon." "I liked the dip because it was smooth." "I liked the hummus because I have it at home." "I liked the dip because it was yummy."
We are going to have more dip again next week so that everyone can try this at our cafe.
