bring you over a surprise round

English to French Other Tourism & Travel
Bonsoir à tous,

Sur site de rencontres, on donne des conseils aux mecs biens pour trouver des filles.
Par exemple dans un bar :
"Ask the barman to bring you over a surprise round, with a cocktail tailored to your date’s tastes".

"Demandez au serveur de vous apporter ???, avec un cocktail créé tout spécialement pour votre rendez-vous."

Merci à tous

neutral Letredenoblesse : la tournée, c´est quand il y a plus de deux personnes. On dit plutôt " c´est à mon tour de payer".

de vous apporter un cocktail à l'impromptu, un cocktail surprise

It is not a question of rounds; probably the barman does not know the new date, but the person meeting the new date does & wants to impress by giving him/her what he/she thinks will like
