I'm looking for a nice place to have dinner with Leigh in Dupont Circle or Adams Morgan.
Ok - what kind of cuisine?
Mediterranean, or New American?
Ok - do you want somewhere romantic or lively?
Romantic, definitely - quiet rather than loud.
Ok - do you know Iron Gate Restaurant in Dupont Circle?
Kind of - what kind of cuisine is it?
Mediterranean.
Sounds great!
When would you like to go?
Tomorrow night, 8pm
So that's dinner for two, tomorrow, Wednesday January 23rd at 8pm, at Iron Gate Restaurant?
Yes
I've checked and they don't have a table for two at 8pm tomorrow. The closest available time is 6:00pm - would you like me to reserve it for then?
No, that's too early - can't do it. How about another restaurant suggestion?
How about Tail Up Goat in Adams Morgan? It's also Mediterranean.
And they have a table for two tomorrow at 8pm?
Yes they do!
Ok excellent. Do you know if the table is in the main room or in the annex?
It's in the main room.
Ok perfect - let's book it!
The table for two has been reserved in your name for 8pm tomorrow night, Wednesday January 23rd.
Thank you!
You're welcome - is there any other information you want to share with the restaurant? For example, is this a special occasion?
No, thanks - that's ok. Though we could pretend it's Leigh's birthday and get some free cake.
But that would be cheating!
Yeah, you're right. I'm just kidding!
Haha, you're so funny. Not.
