Hi Friends!
Eating lunch is an essential part of every day, but deciding what to eat is often a difficult choice. Depending on where you are, the options can either be very few, or totally unlimited. There are lots of ways to eat as well – from the quick takeout meal eaten at school or at work, to the long lunch at a nice restaurant.
Miguel and Zach recently talked about their lunch options. Listen in to their conversation to find out what they’re going to eat.

Miguel:  Hey Zach, what are you gonna get for lunch today?

Zach:  I don’t know. I just started thinking about that. Maybe a burrito?

Miguel:  I’m starving, but you know, I can’t decide between burrito, bento, sushi, sub sandwich, gosh, there’s just so many choices – and none of them sounds just right, you know what I mean?

Zach:  Is there a noodle shop around here?

Miguel:  Yeah, there’s actually a really good, uh, Japanese/Vietnamese, uh, noodle shop that’s up the street, but I always forget about it. I’m glad you reminded me.

Zach:  How do I get there?

Miguel:  Um, it’s just up the street. It’s like, only like 5 blocks, but, um, it’s kind of obscure. It’s like, sort of hidden behind another building, or something, but we can go together if you want.

Zach:  Yeah. That sounds good.

Miguel:  Alright. Let’s go.
