That's two people, for inside.
That's right.
Come this way.

看菜单

没有两份菜单是一样的，但绝大多数被分为几个成分，诸如starters, main courses 和desserts。识别这些成分和知道在它们中要寻找什么会使得餐单更容易认读。

Starters, 或appetizers通常出现在菜单的开头。这部分也许包括诸如soups and salads的小部分。
A: Would you like a starter?
B: The cheese appetizer sounds really good.

下一环节通常是main courses, 或 entrees。 Entree是一个法语词。听听该词的发音。
A: Have you decided on your main course?
B: Does the chicken entree come with rice?

主菜通常会是淀粉食物和蔬菜搭配在一起，如大米和胡萝卜。您也许会在菜单上看到：comes with 或served with。
The steak is served with mashed potatoes and peas.
The fish comes with rice and beans.

如果您想要一份额外的食物，如薯条或蔬菜，来和您的主食一起吃或分享，那么您可以点一份 side dish.
Let's get some extra side dishes for everybody at the table.我们给桌上的每个人再来点配菜吧。

Desserts通常放在菜单的末尾，许多Desserts是根据它们的原产国而得名的。听听以下Desserts的发音。
tiramisu 提拉米苏
chocolate mousse 巧克力慕斯
lemon sorbet 柠檬果汁冰球
