2 mistakes: "at Alan's house" and "on the list". I'm ashamed. Sad But it made me learn by and see my "vulnerable spot". Thank you, Nasreen, Chris.

I have a question about the

I have a question about the last one .. If we remove "that" in the sentence .. Can we say ; Would you like to eat in the Italian restaurant .. Or still "at Italian restaurant" ?

RE; at / in

'Would you like to eat at the Italian restaurant' is the most usual form. Using 'that' shows that we are looking at the restaurant or that we have recently been talking about it.
