今天我们学习了不少有关牛排的知识和词汇,下面就要进入实践环节了,一起来练习一段对话,体会一下在西餐厅里该如何点牛排吧:
Waiter:What kind of steak you prefer for the dinner?
Guest:Mmm, they all look
appealing, do you have any suggestion?
Waiter:I
recommend the
Chef's Special, the
Prime Grade Fillet Mignon.(Prime等级的菲力牛排) It is very light and
tender.
Guest:What do you
mean by
Prime Grade?
Waiter:It means the best
quality beef according to the grading system made by the US Department of Agriculture.
Guest:I see, so I take you're advice, let's try your Filet Mignon.
Waiter:Thanks, how do you want to your steak cooked? Most guests choose
Medium Rare(5分熟).
Guest:Will it be too
rare? I am not used to
rare food.
Waiter:Not at all, you will find that is the meat is so
tender and juicy.
Guest:I'll try, don't let me down.
Waiter:Yes, Sir. What kind of accompaniments you choose to match your steak? We have potato, vegetables, and mushrooms.
Guest:Do you have baked potato, broccoli, and some mushrooms?
Waiter:We certainly do. Any condiment?
Guest:No, thank you, I prefer the
original taste of the steak.
Waiter:Do you want some wine to go with the steak?
Guest:A glass of your house wine will be fine
Waiter:Thanks for your order, the steak will be ready in 15
minutes.
……
Waiter:Here is your steak, please be careful of the hot plate. Enjoy your dinner.
Guest:Thanks a lot.
……
Waiter:How is the dinner? Do you like the steak?
Guest:Terrific, everything is so
tasty.
Waiter:After the main course, do you want some dessert?
Guest:I'm really full, I would rather pass this time, could you fixe me a cup of coffee?
Waiter:Of course. Do you want it black, or to go with sugar and cream?
Guest:The black will do.
