热爱美食吗?那你怎么可以不学“美食英语”!用餐是每天必不可少的活动，与家人吃饭可以很随意;和老外一起吃饭呢?在异国他乡用餐呢?

我们担心 menu (菜单)看不懂，不知在餐厅场景里说点什么?更担心因不了解 table manner (餐桌礼仪)而闹出洋相。也许你的脑子里只有诸如 “delicious, tasty, yummy” 几个词，也许你只会埋头闷吃而不敢言。

01

老外经常遵照如下的逻辑线

1

去餐厅的时间

When did you last go to a restaurant?

2

餐厅类型

What type of restaurant was it?

3

菜品

Did you have a starter/ main course/ dessert? What was it?

开胃菜，主菜，甜品分别点了什么?

在这个层次上，你可以沿用这个句型：

For a starter I had… For a main course I had… For dessert I had…

4

菜的食材

What’s it made with?

5

你对菜的评价

Did you enjoy it?

你可以说：

Last night I went to an Italian restaurant. For a main course, I had spaghetti Bolognese. It was very good. It’s made with beef and tomatoes.

昨晚我去了意大利餐厅。主菜我选了意大利肉酱面。非常好吃。看起来这道美味是用牛肉和番茄做的。

Last week I went to a French restaurant. For dessert, I had crème brulee. It was really sweet. It’s made with vanilla and cream.

上周我去了家法国料理餐厅。我选了法式焦糖炖蛋作甜品。里面有香草和奶油，真的非常甜哦!
