Asking a Local: Where Do You Actually Eat?

There you go, one flat white. Anything else, love?

Um, actually... can I ask you something a bit random?

Of course, ask away! It's quiet this morning.

Where do you actually eat around here? Not the touristy places.

Oh, good question! Most visitors never get past the harbour.

Between you and me, the harbour places are overpriced.

Ugh, I know. I paid twenty pounds for fish and chips!

Twenty pounds? Oh dear, that's daylight robbery!

You should try Rosa's Kitchen. It's where the locals go.

Rosa's Kitchen? That sounds perfect! Where is it?

Well, it's a bit hidden, to be honest.

Go up the hill and turn left after the church.

Then look for a small blue door down an alley.

A blue door in an alley? I'd never find that alone!

Don't worry, you'll smell the garlic before you see it.

So what should I order when I get there?

Get the seafood stew. Trust me, it's amazing!

Oh no, are they open tonight? I'm leaving tomorrow morning.

They open at six, but they don't take bookings.

So get there early, or you'll have to queue.

Wow, this stew is incredible! She was absolutely right.

Well, look who found it! Didn't I tell you?

Oh, hi! I can't believe it. You eat here too?

Every Friday. Rosa's my sister, actually!

Ha, no wonder you recommended it! Thanks so much.
