¡Queremos eso!: The Ganga Girls Take Over a Restaurant
Published onMar 09, 2023 • • ViewMusic Videoblog posts
In 2014, we released Es una ganga, the story of two women with an almost supernatural ability to find a bargain.
Eight years later, we finally brought the Ganga Girls back.
This time, they're not shopping.
They're at a restaurant.
In ¡Queremos eso!, the Ganga Girls arrive just as Feona is trying to close for the night. They want to see the menu.
Feona, against all better judgment, tries to help them them.
Where it goes from there is the fun part.
A Spanish restaurant story with a lot of useful language
For a story about two deeply strange women exhausting the patience of a restaurant employee, ¡Queremos eso! contains an almost suspicious amount of useful Spanish.
Students hear real restaurant language again and again: ¿Les puedo ayudar?, ¿Podemos ver el menú?, ¿Qué nos puede recomendar?, and La cocina está cerrada.
Feona asks about likes and dislikes, meat and fish, vegetables, dietary preferences, and allergies: ¿Qué les gusta?, ¿Comen carne?, ¿Son veganas?, ¿Tienen preferencias o alergias?, and ¿Pueden comer mariscos?.
The song also gives students repeated exposure to querer and poder, while the recommendation sequence brings in les recomiendo plus primero, luego, después, and finalmente.
It's basically a Spanish restaurant unit disguised as something much weirder.
