I'm a vegan.
I ate here last week with a vegetarian friend, here on vacation.
She'd never been to the city and wanted to eat local food, so I took her to the Park Grill.
We both had the spicy red beans and rice.
For $15, it was too expensive;
however, my friend said it was the tastiest bean dish that she'd ever eaten at a restaurant.
We really liked the atmosphere.
It's very relaxed.
The service was excellent, and our server – wow! He was really nice!

4. 在餐厅用餐
Culture Corner: Eating out
You sit at a comfortable table, and your server immediately introduces herself:
'Hello. I'm Julia. I'll be your server tonight.'
Don't be surprised if the server gives you his or her first name.
Most restaurants want you to feel comfortable, so servers are often informal but polite.
Your server will also ask you a lot of questions about your order – questions like 'How would you like that?' and 'What kind of dressing would you like on the salad?' After you start eating, your server may also come back to the table several times, asking, 'How is everything?' Don't worry; that's normal.
Tell the server what you think, honestly and politely.
The server wants to make sure you get exactly what you want and that you are pleased with your food.
After you've eaten, you may still have some food on your plate.
That's fine.
Your server might ask 'Would you like to take that home with you?' If you do want to take the food home to eat later, the server will put the food in a package 'to go.'
Finally, it's important to give your server a tip before you leave.
Servers usually expect a tip that is at least 15 percent of the bill, but customers sometimes leave a 20 percent tip for excellent service.

用 at 说明某一事件发生的时间。
- Our plane leaves at 6:40. 我们的飞机6:40起飞。

用 from 和 to 来谈论一段完整的时间。

用 until 来谈论某一事件之前的时间。

3. 有礼貌地打断别人
- Sorry to interrupt. 对不起，打扰一下。
- I'd like to say something. 我想说几句。
- Excuse me. 对不起。
打断：打断别人说话时，要记住两件重要的事。第一，务必礼貌，使用 excuse me 和 I'm sorry 等类似表达。第二，在别人说完一句话再打断，不要在开始说一句话时打断。使用类似这样的表达来插话。
- A: I think that this fish is delicious! And … 我觉得这鱼非常好吃！还有……

- B: Sorry to interrupt, but our movie starts in 30 minutes. We should leave soon. 不好意思，打断一下，我们的电影还有半小时就开始了。我们得马上走了。
使用类似下面的表达补充他人的观点，或者表述与之相反的观点。注意，这些说话技巧比直接打断要礼貌得多。
- A: Well, both the T-bone steak and the lasagna look really good. I can't decide. 嗯，丁骨牛排和千层面看起来都不错。我不知道点什么好。
- B: I'd like to add something. The T-bone is from a local farm. It's organic beef. 我想补充几句。丁骨牛排来自当地农场，是有机牛肉。

Module 4. 结束用餐和买单
1. 餐厅就餐
撰写正确的分句
用英语写作时，每个分句中都应用一个主语加上一个谓语动词。 尽管有例外情况，这仍是一个不错的经验法则。
- I recently ate at a really cool restaurant. 我最近在一家的确很棒的餐厅吃饭。
- We had drinks, appetizers, a main course and dessert. 我们喝了饮料、吃了开胃菜、主菜和甜点。
在带有一个主句和一个从属分句的句子中，每个分句都需要一个主语和一个谓语动词。
主句 从属分句
We ordered the perfect espresso <=| when we finished dessert.
我们点了这杯完美的意式浓缩咖啡 当我们吃完甜品时。
Everything was fresh and delicious,<=| so we'll probably go again.
每道食物都很新鲜和美味，所以，我们可能还会再去。
Francis and I recently ate at a new restaurant called 1876.
I had called to make reservations, and the employee was very friendly.
She put us down for a 7 p.m. reservation.
When we arrived, the place looked beautiful.
There were candles everywhere, and the server gave us a fantastic, free appetizer.
I ordered the asparagus quiche, and it came with a side of spicy corn on the cob.
It was unbelievable! As soon as we finished the main course, we both ordered the cheesecake brownie.
It was two classic desserts in one! The food was definitely not low-fat,
but the chef said that it's mostly local and organic.
Everything was delicious and unusual, so we'll probably go again.
2. 买单

- A: The meal's on me. 这顿饭我请客。
- B: That's very generous. I appreciate it. 你真大方。 非常感谢。
注意在下列对话中这名男士是如何礼貌地拒绝、最终又是如何接受别人的好意的：

- B: You don't have to do that! 你不必这么做的！
- A: I insist. You're my guest. 一定得让我请。 你是我的客人。
- B: Well, if you insist. Thanks very much. 好，如果你坚持的话。非常感谢。
文化说明：在商务聚餐 结束后，一方通知 会请客。但是在更多的非正式的场合，通常会平摊费用，有一个人会负责计算费用并告诉大家每人应该付多少钱。有时，人们会计算各自点的食物是多少钱各自买单，或者每人要求单独的账单。如果你不清楚该怎么买单，你可以问一下。
- A: So, how are we paying the check? 我们怎么买单呢？
- B: How about we each pay for what we had? 我们各付各的怎么样？
- A: Shall we split the bill equally? 我们AA制好吗？
