如何用英語點菜?
       點菜有兩種方式,一是a la carte(隨意點菜),一是tabled' hote或fixed price meal(份飯,套餐),后一種有幾道固定的菜肴和飲料,價格也是固定的。它的優(yōu)點就是方便快捷,點菜時只需指著菜單說:
    Please give me this one.
    (請給我來這個。)
    We want two number eights, please.
    (我們要四份第八套餐。)
    在點菜之前,一般先要份菜單:
    May I have a menu, please?
    (我可以看菜單嗎?)
    如果不急于點菜,可以在服務(wù)生問到:
    Can I take your order now?
    (你現(xiàn)在叫點什么嗎?)
    回答:
    Not quite. Could I have a few more minutes?
    (不,我可以再多等會嗎?)
    需要叫菜時,可以說:
    Please take my order.
    (請接受點菜。)
    如果對當(dāng)?shù)氐牟穗炔皇煜?,可以問?BR>    What is the specialty of the restaurant?
    (這家店的招牌餐是什么?)
    Do you have any special meals today?
    (今天有什么特餐嗎?)
    What would you recommend? I prefer something light.
    (我想來點清淡些的,你能推薦什么嗎?)
    也可以讓同來的人替你作主,或是點重復(fù)的飯菜:
    I'll leave it to you.
    (我讓你來點。)
    I'll have the same as that one.
    (我要一份和那個一樣的。)
    自己點菜可以更隨意些,例如:
    A. Could you tell me how this thing is cooked?
    (能否告訴我這道菜是怎么做的?)
    B. Lobster? It's steamed and served with our special sauce.
    (龍蝦?蒸過后加上本店特制的調(diào)味料。)
    A. Is it good?
    (好吃嗎?)
    B. Sure. It's a most popular dish.
    (當(dāng)然,很受歡迎的。)
    A. I think I'll try some lobster, and give me some green salad together.
    (我想我來點兒吧。再給我一份蔬菜沙拉。)
    B. We have three dressings for salad. Which one would you like ?
    (我們有三種沙拉調(diào)味汁,您要哪種?)
    A. What kind do you have?
    (你們有什么?)
    B. We have Italian, French and Thousand Island.
    (有義大利,法國和千島的。)
    A. Make it French please.
    (給我法式的吧。)
