Rode wijn alstublieft.
(roada vine als too bleeft)

Or more commonly as a tourist in Holland - a red wine please.

Don't forget to say bedankt when you get it!

O sticlă/un pahar de vin roşu, vă rog.
(A bottle/glass of red wine, please.)

Try not to let the waiter see the panic behind your eyes as you loudly and carefully enunciate, "RED WINE. WE WANT UNO BOTTLE-0 OF RED WINE. VEEENO A LA RED. UNO. FOR TWO."

Be sure to say grace right away, don't wait for the food or even the menu. You will need God's help.
