印度菜Indian Food |
參加人員:Gary、Santi、Waitress
Gary:Wow! This is a cool restaurant! I've always wanted to try authentic Indian cuisine. Thank you so much for bringing me here today.
Santi:Oh, don't mention it. I come here almost every month with my family. We've been eating here since my parents immigrated to America.
Gary:Do you also eat Indian food at home?
Santi:Most of the time. We live closely with our relatives in an Indian neighborhood. We often have traditional Indian dinners together. Both my mother and aunt are great cooks.
Gary:Sounds great. So, you've got to help me with the menu. I have no idea how to order food here.
Santi:I assume that you don't like your food too hot. Am I right?
Gary:You're correct. I can handle medium hot dishes, but I have trouble with very hot food.
Santi:You do like chicken, don't you? How about some Chicken Masala? It's creamy and not too hot. We could also order some naan to go with the curry.
Gary:What is naan?
Santi:It's a kind of Indian bread. Do you know how they make naan? They stick the dough on the inside of an oven called a Tandoor.
Gary:Naan sounds lovely. Why don't we get one vegetarian dish? What do you recommend?
Santi:We could try Matar Paneer. It's got green peas and cheese in it.(To the waitress) Excuse me. I think we're ready to order.
Waitress:Sure. What would you like?
Santi:We'd like to have one Chicken Masala, one Matar Paneer, and two orders of naan.
Waitress:Would you like drinks as well?
Santi:Two Lassi, please.
Waitress:Certainly. Anything else?
Santi:That's all for now. Thank you.
Gary:哇!真酷的餐廳!我一直想去道地的印度餐廳。謝謝你今天帶我來這裡。
Santi:不要客氣,我和家人幾乎每個月都會來這裡。自從我父母移民到美國來後,我們就都來這裡吃東西。
Gary:你在家也吃印度食物嗎?
Santi:大部分都吃印度食物。我們和親戚們都住在同一個印度社區,我們常聚在一起吃傳統的印度晚餐,我媽媽和我阿姨的手藝都很好喔。
Gary:真好耶,那就請你幫我看菜單了,我不知道要點什麼。
Santi:我想你不喜歡太辣的食物,對嗎?
Gary:沒錯,我能吃中辣的菜,太辣的不行。
Santi:你喜歡吃雞肉吧?那印度咖哩雞肉怎麼樣?有一點奶味、不會太辣,我們也可以點一些咖哩烤餅。
Gary:烤餅是什麼?
Santi:是一種印度麵包,你知道烤餅是怎麼做的嗎?他們把麵糰黏在一種叫做Tandoor 的烤爐內側烤。
Gary:聽起來很有趣耶。我們可以來點些蔬菜,你推薦什麼呢?
Santi:我們可以試試咖哩豌豆起司,它裡面有綠豌豆和起司。(對女服務生說)不好意思,我們可以點餐了。
Waitress:好的,要點什麼呢?
Santi:我們要一份印度咖哩雞肉、一份咖哩豌豆起司和兩份烤餅。
Waitress:要點飲料嗎?
Santi:要,兩杯拉西。
Waitress:好的,還需要別的嗎?
Santi:暫時這些就夠了,謝謝你。
