Part 1 Where to Eat in America 美國餐館種類
If you want a hamburger, hotdog or fied potato, you can go to those REFRESHMENT STANDS or SNACK BARS, which also sell soft drinks.You can find these stalls everywhere, parks, theatre entrance, airport, bus stop, railway station, etc. The price there is very low and the food is excellent. And also if you want to find a better place to enjoy your hamburger, you can go to the FAST FOOD CHAINS.
The Italian food is very popular in America.You can buy it at a PIZZA STAND.It's easy to find those stands, but remember, if you choose to stay there enjoying your food, you should pay some tips after finishing the meal.
There is another kind of restaurant that is called "LUNCHEONETTE" if you are particularly food of sandwiches, those are the right choices.To eat in such restaurants is quite economical.
And if you want some vegetables, you can go to the SALAD BARS on the street.
You can go to the DINERS or COFFEE SHOPS if you want to enjoy a full-scale Western-style food. There you can order food of various levels according to your own preference and economic status.
Of course there are also many CHINESE FOOD RESTAURANTS, but it is somehow expensive to eat there-if you want to had a good meal.
Finally, using VENDING MACHINES are the easiest way to solve your food problem.You can find anything in it, candy, biscuit, fruit, coffee and so on.
美國是一個餐飲業十分發達的國家,它的餐館大致可以分為以下幾種:
首先,如果你想吃漢堡、熱狗或者是炸土豆條,你可以去REFRESHMENT STANDS (點心鋪)或者SNACK BARS(小吃店),這類攤點不僅有吃的,還賣飲料,而且到處都可以找到,公園、戲院人口處、機場、汽車站、火車站等。如果你想去一個環境好點兒的地方吃漢堡,建議你去FAST FOOD CHAINS(快餐聯鎖店)。
在美國,如果想吃比薩,可以去PIZZA STAND(餡餅攤)。這類攤點很容易找到,如果你坐在餐桌前吃,別忘了吃完要付點小費。
另外,如果專門要吃三明治,LUNCHEONETTE(便餐店)是不錯的選擇,在這種小店里吃飯非常實惠。若想要吃蔬菜,大街上的SALAD BARS(沙拉酒吧)里就有供應。
若要享受西餐的全套飯菜,可以去兩個地方:一是DINERS(小餐館),另一類是COFFEE SHOP(咖啡店)。在這些地方,你可以根據自己的喜好和經濟狀況點自己想要的食物。
吃飯最簡捷的方式是在VENDING MACHINES(自動售貨機)那兒買,這種機器什么都賣,糖果、餅干、水果、咖啡,一應俱全。
