1. having meals in the restaurant
hello, I’d like to make a reservation for tonight.
Do you want your roast beef rare, medium, or well done?
I’ll take pork chops, with creamed corn, mashed potatoes and tossed salad. Apple pie and iced tea for dessert.
I’ll have roast beef, French fried potatoes and green beans. Noodle soup first. Ice cream and coffee for dessert.
I’ll take the easy way out and try today’s special.
Western meal will be served in something like the following order: appetizers, soup and \or salad, entrée (the main course of a meal; usually meat, or fish.), vegetables, noodles, or rice(served at the same time as the entrée), dessert: coffee, tea, brandy.
Dressing, liquor, pot luck, vegetarians.
Soup is thick and heavy. Soup is thin and clear. Medium is halfway between rare and well done.
Delicacy, speciality, ketchup, mustard, snack, spit fruit pits,
an American rarely eats any meat that is uncooked. The irish likes the plain boiled potatoes, whereas most Americans prefer their potatoes prepared in other ways—fried, baked, or boiled and then mashed and served with gravy.
Bean curd, bean sprouts, cauliflower, chili, cuttlefish, egg roll, egg drop soup, leeks, lobster, sausage, seasoning, sesame oil, shrimp, shark fin soup, soy sauce, binegar, won-ton soup.

The only way to improve your speaking English is to speak, speak, and speak.
