Almuerzo familiar challenge

I stole this idea from Annie and Mariana – all good ideas are eventually copied.

But there is a twist.

You are seeing the lunch menu where I had lunch today.

............

Photobucket

............

Some items have run out and have been partially rubbed out.

Your challenge is to complete the menu and then “interpret” it into English.

I will do all the checking and accept the “best” answer

or

the answer that has the exact price I paid for my waiter served lunch – in US $s and cents grin
