Emma (00:02):
You are listening to Dialogue Frog's conversations for practicing English. You went to the pizza food truck, and you went without me.

Luke (00:16):
I did bring you pizza though.

Emma (00:17):
You did. That's true.

Luke (00:18):
You can't- you can't accuse me of that.

Emma (00:22):
But I kinda wanted to see it too. So, can you tell me what was the pizza truck like?

Luke (00:29):
Um, they had, it was kind of cool. They had a little miniature brick oven built in, so they would, uh, cook their crusts and then, um, assemble it or maybe I got that backwards. They probably assembled it and then cooked, cooked it. But either way there was cooking and there was assembling.

Emma (00:47):
So, let me, lemme try and understand this. So, the vehicle, the, the auto automotive, the automobile is separate from the fireplace where they cooked the pizza.

Luke (00:59):
No, it's built in to the, to the truck part.

Emma (01:03):
Oh, it is?

Luke (01:04):
Uh.

Emma (01:04):
So, like the front part is the engine and the back part is where they cook pizzas.

Luke (01:10):
Yeah.

Emma (01:11):
Weird. That's kinda cool.

Luke (01:14):
Yep.

Emma (01:15):
And so the, the oven is on the inside?

Luke (01:20):
Yeah. It's like a little, they have like a little trap door and then it unfolds.

Emma (01:26):
So, they go into the back of the truck to cook the pizza.

Luke (01:29):
Yeah.

Emma (01:31):
Cool. And that's also where they like roll out the dough and put on the toppings?

Luke (01:37):
I think so. Yeah. I think it's on the inside there too.

Emma (01:42):
Now, can they bring the pizza to your house since it's so mobile? Can they just like drive up to your house and cook pizza at your house?

Luke (01:48):
That'd be nice.

Emma (01:50):
That's-

Luke (01:50):
I think they can actually. 'Cause when I looked on their website, it said private event.

Emma (01:54):
Ooh! So that must be it, right?

Luke (01:56):
Yeah.

Emma (01:57):
Oh, that'd be nice. Dangerous, but nice,

Luke (02:01):
Dangerous, but nice.

Emma (02:04):
