This past Thursday my conversation partner and I had dinner at Tijuana Flats on Pensacola Street.  It was his first "Mexican" restaurant he went to in the United States.  I helped him order his food.  Also, in respects to Ramadan, we scheduled the dinner at a rather late time and met around 9:30 pm. The dinner was with two other friends so my conversation partner could listen to how other people spoke English, one was another international student and the other was a native speaker.  As we arrived at the restaurant, I assisted in finding the right dish for my conversation partner and asked if he had ever had this kind of food before.  This was his first time.  Through multiple exchanges in opinions, he decided that he would have the Chimichanga.

As the food came out, I directed his attention the vast variety of hot sauces that were in the "sauce bar." He was amazed and amused at the assortment and the pictures that went with their description.  He asked me a lot on what the implications of having a "hot/burning butt," but I assured him that I will explain it to him after we finished dinner.

Throughout the dinner we caught up on each others' weekends.  Then y partner tol me that he was going to take his IELTs Exam in Tampa the day after we met.  I asked him if he was cofident and which part he was most concerned with.  He was very confident and told me that he was good to go.

After the meal I wished him the very best in his examination, we talked for a bit longer and left.
