-- Fine 意味着"Expensive"昂贵. 并且你通常需要预定席位.

just go with casual, because casual is where most can go. Even if you're in a foreign country

所以我们还是去"casual 中等餐厅", 因为Casual是大多数人去的地方. 并且假设你

身处国外, 给游客提供的, 大多数是Casual, 不一定是

fine dining, so I'm sticking with casual, all right?

餐馆时, 他们一般会说"Party of"或"table for", 你会问

to say, "What?" Well, "party of" -- I know you're not like, "Fiesta time, baby! Yeah,

"Party(派对)?"我知道你不是那种, "狂欢吧, 宝贝, 耶

we're going to party, going to be drinking" -- no. What they mean is you are a group of

我们去参加派对, 狂欢畅饮", 他们的意思

people, and how many are in the group. So "party of two" or "party of four" means there

你们一组人, 有几个, "Party of two" 或"Party of four"意味着

are two -- you can say, "There are two in my party" or four. "There are two of us",

or "there are four of us", or ten, okay? Then it's a "partay". It's not a "party"; it's

a "partay". Now, "table of" means the same thing, or "table

10个是partay(宴会), "table of "是一个意思, 或 "Table for"

for", "table for". And they mean, for -- I did a video where I talked about "for" means

"Table for", "For"意思是"Receive(收到)"

Menu(菜单), 有些人以为是"Men for you", 不, 没有男人给你, 一份menu

A "menu" is a list of the foods that they want you to try or have or that you might

就是含有食物和菜品的清单, 供你挑选及点单

be interested in, okay? You'll notice I have some things here I want to discuss, but before

希望你能对其产生兴趣, OK? 这里可以讨论, 但是

I do that, Mr. E -- because the first thing they will usually say to you is, "Would you

汽水, 或者是酒. 所以你告诉他们. 他们会给你几分钟

at the menu, and this is the list of foods you can have.

Now, I'm going to use a funny sentence, but it's like, "Would you like to whet your appetite?"

接下来我要教你一些有趣的句子, 比如你要什么"appetite"

"Whet your appetite". You're going to say, "What the hell does that mean?" You're probably

"Whet your appetite". 你会说, 那是什么意思, 你也许会

nodding your head. It's an idiom for something to have first because "appetite" comes from

点头. 这是一个俗语, 是你的第一样菜. "appetite"

this first thing I'm going to teach you, which is "appetizer". You need to know what it means

是我要教你的第一样, 来自"appetizer". 你要明白它的意思

when someone says an "appetizer" -- sorry, sorry. "Appetizer". When we talk about "appetizer",

当有人说"appetizer", 当我们谈起"appetizer"

it's the first thing you have when you have your food. Number one. And it's something

就是正餐之前的第一样食物----即开胃菜(appetizer), 第一样

that's very small, and when they say "whet appetite", they're trying to say, "something

是一样小份的, 当他们说 "whet appetite(开胃)", 他们的意思是

to start before you have the real food?" And there's a name for the real food, okay? So

上正餐之前的开胃菜, 正餐也有相应的名称, OK?

an "appetizer" is something small, okay? And you have it first. So "appetizer", it's funny,

appetizer即少量开胃菜, 你要点的第一份. "appetizer"很有意思

can be soup and salad. Soup. Salad. Or it could be shrimp -- five little shrimp. Not

可以是汤或沙拉. 或龙虾 - 5个小龙虾

a plate with rice, but just five shrimp and garlic. Something that tastes nice to start

不是盘子装着龙虾饭, 只是龙虾和蒜蓉. 小份的美味, 正餐之前的

your meal, okay? So remember: It's usually small, and it comes first. All right?

开胃菜, OK? 所以请记住, 小份的, 第一样食物, 即appetizer, OK?

Now, after they take that, they might say -- because this happens at restaurants. They'll

开胃菜下单后, 他们可能会说 --很多餐馆都是如此--他们

say, "Would you like something to start?" And that's what they call it. Sometimes they

一般说"Would you like something to start?" 这是另一种讲法, 有时说

say "appetizer"; sometimes they say "start" or "a starter". "Would you like something

"appetizer", 或"start", 或"starter". "餐前吃什么?"

to start the meal?" Which could be your appetizer -- same thing. Or "would you like a starter?"

"想要什么开胃菜?" --两者是相同的意思 或"would you like a starter"

And the really cool restaurants now they go "starters" to start the day. Okay? And once

酷的餐馆会用开胃菜开启新的一天 重复一遍

again, it's still first and small. And right after they ask you for the appetizer,

开胃菜是第一样小份的食物 开胃菜下单后

they'll do something -- and you're going to go, "What?" They're going to ask you if you

他们会问些东西 --你会问"什么?" 他们会问你

want to know what the -- what the specials are. You go, "Specials?" Yeah. The specials

想要特价菜(special)吗? 你会问"Specials?" 对

they're interesting because what the specials -- they give you a sometimes a lower price

他们会推荐的特价菜 -- 一般是低价的某种食物

for some same food, or they give you better food for the same price. So usually, the money

或某种高品质的食物--但是保持价格不变

goes down on the specials. The special of the day, okay? And with that, they might ask

所以一般特价菜是相对便宜的 "每日特价" OK?

you something else. They'll go, "Okay, we have specials." You go, "Special?" "Yes. Today,

有时他们会问我们有"特价菜", 你反问"特价菜?" -"是的, 仅限当日"

and they'll say, the catch of the day is cod fish." "Catch of the day", see? A "catch of

他们会说, "今日特价菜是鳕鱼" "Catch of the day",

the day" is fish, you know? Swimming in the sea, fish. So they'll say -- and they're saying

今日"Catch of the day" 是鱼, 知道吗? 在海里游泳的鱼, 所以他们说 --

it's fresh -- just today. "So we got it today. It's fresh. It's new, and that's what we're

很新鲜的--今天的, 刚到的, 这是我们

giving you." You can have the catch of the day, or you can have the soup of the day because

要提供的. 你有机会点catch of the day, 或者你可以点一份汤

every day these two will change. They will change. They'll give you either a different

因为这些是每日会更新的. 他们会给你

fish or a different soup -- cabbage soup or it might be leek soup or soup soup. I've never

不同的鱼或不同的汤 --卷心菜汤或soup soup. 我从没点过

had soup soup before. I must be special. Okay. They usually give you these when they give

soup soup. 我肯定很特别. 他们一般提供这些

you the specials of the day. So you've got to -- oh. There are two words I don't want

当日特价. 所以你会--噢, 这两个单词我

you to see yet. "Oh, James, please, please!" No. You don't need to know. I come back later.

还不想让你看到"噢, 詹姆斯, 别擦掉". 你暂时不用知道, 我待会再讲这一点

Okay. But when they give you the specials, sometimes they'll give you everything at the

OK, 当他们给你特价菜时, 有时

same time, okay? So say you get this, this, and this, for one price, and that's the special,

所有菜都是相同的价格. 你得到这个, 这个和这个, 用相同的价格, 这就是特价菜

all right? So now, what we call this special thing if

好吗? 那么我们怎么称呼一种

all the price together, in a nice restaurant, it's called a -- I like to say "prixie fixie".

一些菜品打包在一起, 在一间不错的饭店, 我一般称之为"prixie fixie"

"Prix fixe". It's French for "fixed price", and you're going to get three things -- and

"prixie fixie" 是法语固定价格的意思. 而且你会得到3种东西

we're going to talk about those three things in a second -- all together for one price.

我们要谈到的3种东西在一起, 只有一个价格

And if you go to McDonald's, it's called a "combo". Yeah. Well, I know we're not going

如果你去麦当劳, 那叫套餐(combo). 我知道我们不是去

to McDonald's, but just in case, you can get combo No. 1: Big Mac, French fries, and -- yeah,

麦当劳. 但假设你去了, 你会得到套餐1: 巨无霸, 炸薯条-耶

I love it. Anyway, so they'll introduce to you the specials or the prix fixe for the

我喜欢. 所以他们会向你介绍特价菜或 当日prix fixe(套餐)

day. They'll tell you about the catch of the day or the soup of the day, good?

他们会说当日特供或每日独有的汤

Now, once you've ordered those, when they bring your appetizers and you're eating it

当你点了这些, 当他们带给你特价菜或你已经在吃了

or just -- sorry. Before you eat it, they'll bring it, and they'll say, "Can we take your

不对--抱歉, 在你吃之前, 他们会上菜. 他们会说"能点主食了吗"

main?" "Main" is your "big food". That's your chicken and rice, your steak and potatoes,

主食是你的硬菜或大餐, 那是你的鸡肉或米饭, 牛排或土豆

your vegetables -- that's the main course. It's called your "main", or it's called the

你的蔬菜--那是主菜, 一般叫"main"或

"main course", okay? And that's the "big food". After you've had a small bit, they want to

"main course", ok? 那叫大餐. 当你吃了小食, 他们想

give you the big food. That's the second part, all right?

给你上正餐. 那是第二部分, 好吗?

Now, you're going to finish that, but before you do that -- before, because I said you're

现在你要吃完开胃菜了, 但在那之前-之前

going to order -- they're going to ask you what you want for your main course, your big

我刚说你正要点餐--他们会问你, 你的

food. Notice how I said steak, potato, or vegetable or rice, chicken and vegetables.

主食. 注意到我说了牛排, 土豆, 蔬菜或米饭, 鸡肉和蔬菜

When they do this -- with your appetizer, you have to eat the appetizer. Because it's

当你点餐时--正在吃开胃菜, 你要吃掉开胃菜

small, you have to have what they give you. But with your main course, you can actually

因为那很少, 你能吃掉. 但你的主食可以

change things. Now -- or get extra stuff. It's cool. And these are called "sides" or

做一些调整. 现在--来加一些额外的配餐. 那很 酷, 这些叫"sides"或

-- when you have your main course, you might like French fries instead of potatoes, so

--当你吃主食时, 你可能更喜欢薯条而不是整个土豆, 所以

you can say, "I want fries." And they will say "Okay, would you like to substitute" -- change.

你可以说"我要薯条", 他们会说"你想换成"--

So in this case, this means "change". Some people like rice better than that, or they

所以在此情形, 这叫"调整". 有些人喜欢米饭, 或者

want more vegetables, so you can say, "I'd like to substitute. Change this for that."

想要更多的蔬菜, 所以你可以说"我想替换成", 用这个替换那个

Cool? A "side" is a little different. A "side" means

酷? "side"有些不同, "side"意味着

"extra". So you can say, "Hey look, I want the catch of the day for my main course."

"增加", 所以你可以说"Hey 听着, 我要当日特价菜作为主菜"

They'll go, "Cool, no problem." You go, "But you know, I don't want the rice. I don't really

他们会说, "酷, 没问题". 你说"但是呢, 我不想要米饭. 我不喜欢米饭

like rice. Can I have some French fries? I'd like to substitute it for French fries." They'll

能给我换成薯条吗? 我想用米饭换薯条." 他们

go, "Okay." You go, "But on the side I'd like to have mushrooms." "Mushrooms? Well, that's

会说"OK." 你说, "但我想加一些蘑菇". "蘑菇? 那是

extra." "I know. That's why I said I want it on the side." "Oh." So "side" is for extra

额外加菜.""我知道, 所以我说side.""噢!" 所以"side"就是

food that doesn't come with the meal, but you can buy it. And in many restaurants, on

在主食之外加菜, 你要额外付钱. 在很多餐厅

the menu, it will say "sides", and it will have French fries, potato, mushrooms, shrimp,

的菜单边上, 会写上"sides", 例如法式薯条, 土豆, 蘑菇, 虾仁

and it means you can add to your main course anything you like. Now you know. All right?

意思是你可以将它们加入到主菜中, 只要你要. 现在明白了吧?

So that's what this is, basically, on the basic menu. So now, you've had your appetizer,

所以这是基本的, 基本菜单. 那么现在, 你吃了开胃菜

and you've had your main course. Maybe you had a substitution or a side, and you're feeling

你吃了主菜. 也许你替换了某些配菜或有加菜. 然后你感觉

很棒. OK. 你想放松一下, 所以第三步是? 看这边, 我要

喝咖啡或茶, 因为我们很讲究, 我们在餐厅用餐, 掏了钱

So we wants some tea, but what do we want it with? We want it with dessert. "Dessert"

所以我们要喝茶, 但仅此而已吗? 我们要茶水和甜点. "Dessert"

is food after -- after you have your main and your -- there you go. "Dessert". It's

就是吃完饭以后--吃完主食--然后是"Dessert"

not -- here. I'll make it big for you. D-e-s-s-e-r-t. And you're wondering, "Why do you want to

我写大一点 D-e-s-s-e-r-t. 你觉得我干嘛

do this?" Because if you go to Saudi Arabia, there's a desert. And if you want dessert,

写这个? 因为如果你去沙特阿拉伯, 那里有沙漠"Desert", 如果你要 Dessert

there're two because it's your second meal. That's why I'm doing this -- because it's

中间有两个S, 因为是你的第二餐, 所以我特别强调, 因为

funny. See? It's your second meal? So this is how you'll spell it correctly. You'll learn

这很有趣. 看到了吗? 你的第二餐. 所以这帮你正确拼写. 你会和我

things with me, all right? So you have dessert, and with dessert, you can have coffee or tea,

学到东西的, 好吗? 所以你吃了甜点, 和甜点一起上来有咖啡或茶

这很糟(sucks), sucks意味着很糟. 你吃了开胃菜, 你很喜欢

I'm sure. You've had your main course, your big food. I love chocolate cake, so you've

我确定. 你吃了主食, 你的大餐. 我喜欢巧克力蛋糕, 所以你

had chocolate cake or ice cream for dessert, which is amazing. Here is the small problem,

吃了巧克力蛋糕或冰淇淋作为甜点. 那很棒, 现在有个小问题

okay? At the end -- nothing is for free, friends. You get the William. Well, what we call the

OK? 最后--没有免费的晚餐, 朋友, 你收到了william

"William" over here is you can ask for the "bill" or the "check". Okay? The "check" is

"William" 意味着账单, 小票, OK? 账单

拿到账单, 上面有些东西要注意. 有些地方

it on the bill or the check. Some places don't. For sure, if there are taxes, you'll have

的账单上会显示, 有些地方不会. 如果有消费税, 你要付

a tax. It will tell you much tax was your food. So you spend $30 on food, $5 on taxes.

消费税, 上面会显示你的食物的税金. 所以你花了30美金吃饭, 5美金消费税

Some places actually put this other thing on, and if you go to North America -- and

有些地方会明示. 如果你去北美--

British people: I know you speak English. You have to learn this okay? In North America

而英国人: 我知道你说英语, 但你要学这个, 在北美

-- that would be Canada and the United States -- they tip. They tip, British people, so

一般是加拿大和美国--要付小费(tip), 英国人

I know this is for people who are learning English, but British people you've got to

但英国人, 英国人你们也要知道

learn to tip, okay? "Tip" is to give some money extra to the service. See? "Tip". And

小费, OK? "TIP"就是小费. "Tip"

English people, this is not a tip. This is what I put in for parking. "Tip" is dollar

而英国人会说, 这不是小费, 这是停车费. "tip"来自美金账单

bills, dollar dollar bills you know? Okay? You spend $100 on food? A dollar is not a

美金账单知道吗? OK? 你吃饭花了100刀, 那么1美刀可不是

tip; it's an insult. Anyway. I told you I was a waiter? It happened once. Hundred-dollar

小费, 这会变成侮辱. 总之, 我说过我做过服务员, 这种事发生过一次

bill; they left me with a smile. "That was great. Thank you." I was like, "No thank you

100刀的账单, 他们给我一个微笑当做小费. "刚才很棒, 谢谢你!" 我尴尬"不,

to you." Anyway. So there will be tax and tip. Sometimes -- some restaurants will put

应该谢你". 所以最后会有消费税和小费. 有时--有些餐馆的账单

it on the bill automatically, so you have to check and ask. If you say, "Is the tax

会自动显示, 所以你要检查并询问, 你可以问"消费税

and tip included", they'll say yes or no. If not, you have to add it.

和小费包含了吗", 他们会回答yes或no. 如果没包含, 你要自己加上去

Here's a guideline or something as a tip -- see? This is extra. This is what a tip is for you.

这是一个基本的规则, 小费, 是额外服务费, 这是你的小费

In North America, it can go anywhere from 10 percent to 20. Okay? Just letting you know.

在北美, 基本上是账单的10%到20%, OK? 让你有个概念

When you go, don't leave that dollar. 10 or 20 percent is what they're looking for if

你离开时, 不要只扔下一美刀. 10%或20%是他们良好的

you get good service, right? If the service isn't good, talk to the manager. Don't hurt

服务应得的, 好吗? 如果服务不好, 和经理谈谈, 不要伤害

the waiter or waitress; there may be a reason. But anyway.

服务员, 虽然他们可能有问题. 但总之

I hope this has been good for you. This is basic information for going to a restaurant.
