Nit: It's "à la carte" meaning "by the card" or "according to the menu". Often the accent is dropped in English writing, but it's always written as three words.
This is just a stupid, meaningless nit-pick. I totally understood what you were saying, so it's really not important. It's just, the more you know, ya know?
G: yeah, we are charging you by the (payment) card, what is the issue here? Can't please anyone these days...
Card is the literal translation; however a more correct translation would be “menu” or, traditionally, “bill of fare.”
