Ordering Pizza in French

Ordering pizza in French

​The scenario

We have been asked to help at the RichlandOne International Center. They are hosting a lunch for incoming students from Cameroon and Senegal. They will serve Chick-fil-A and Pizza Hut. We need to help translate for them!

Pizza Hut: The students may ask us what it is:

Qu'est-ce que c'est? What it it?

Un restaurant qui propose des pizzas.

Its a restaurant that serves pizza.

proposer= to offer

Multiple Choice

To say what a restaurant serves, what verb is typically used in French?

• Proposer= to offer

• donner= to give

• manger= to eat

Vous voulez quoi (what) sur(on) votre pizza? What do you want on your pizza (if you are talking to a group)


Tu veux quoi sur ton pizza? What do you want on your pizza? (if you are talking to an individual)

RichlandOne wants to make the students feel welcome, so they are offering a limited selection of toppings. We will need to ask:

Remember Formal vs. informal

Tu (you) and ton (your) is for talking to one person in a casual way.

Vous, you and votre (your) is for talking to a group of people OR talking to an individual in a formal, respectful way.
