Our waiter not only recited specials but squeezed in a few menu items as well.

The waiter came, lit the table candle, and recited the daily specials.

A waiter brought them sodas and recited the menu in French.

"In a minute," said the Iceman as their waiter brought them their drinks and recited the day's special off-the-menu selections.
