Descriptive Essay

Make readers see, taste, hear, smell and feel. Give the reader a mental picture.
Pro essay- Intro
Imagine a restaurant where your every whim is catered to, your every want satisfied, your every request granted without hesitation. The people on staff live to please you. They hover over you anxiously as you sample your selection, waiting for your judgment. Your pleasure is their delight, your dissatisfaction their dismay. Lou’s isn’t that kind of place.
Question- example 1
Does the author have a thesis?
Can you picture this ‘perfect restaurant’ the author describes?
Pro essay- Body 1
At Lou’s Kosy Korner Koffee Shop, the mock abuse flows like a cup of spilled Folgers. Customers are yelled at, lectured, blamed, mocked, teased, and ignored. They pay for the privilege of pouring their own coffee and scrambling their own eggs. As in a fond but dysfunctional family, Lou displays his affection through criticism and insults, and his customers respond in kind. If Lou’s had a slogan, it might be, “If I’m polite to you, ask yourself what’s wrong.”

Assignment- Descriptive Essay
Once you have a thesis, make a list of as many details as you can to support your general impression. -Tired workers at the counter -Out-of-order neon sign -Silent middle-aged couple -Couldn’t see anyone in the kitchen
