A first-lesson story for absolute beginners: Olya goes into a small café by the park and orders lunch. Every phrase you actually need is here, in the order you need it — hello, a table for one, here is the menu, what would you like, do you have soup, how much is it, excuse me I don't eat meat, enjoy your meal, may I have the bill, goodbye. Present tense, short sentences, nothing else going on.
