Restaurants

In all large cities there are plenty of restaurants, cafés, cafeterias, self-service dining-rooms, etc. All the large hotels have dining-rooms or restaurants.

You can have breakfast, lunch or dinner at any restaurant. Every restaurant offers you dinner «table d’hôte». These meals are known as regular dinners. It means that you are served with meals of several courses, at a fixed price. «Table d’hôte» is cheaper than «table à la carte». «Table à la carte» means such meals which are ordered course by course, from the menu card, each dish separately.

At the restaurant each little party of guests has its own table. In the evening you can see several people dancing at the far end of the room, near the orchestra. One of the waiters is standing near the table where there are cold dishes of various kinds. He is holding a tray with two wine-glasses on it. He has put the bottle of wine into the ice-bucket to keep it cool.

In summer, when it is very hot, you can also order cold, refreshing beverages, such as: soda-water, juice, lemonade or beer. In summer people also eat a lot of ice-cream.

At a restaurant you can get all kinds of meals, hot dishes as well as cold ones.

Take-away restaurants

Take-away restaurants are very popular. It is cheaper than eating in the restaurant and you can even order by phone and have all the food brought to your home.

The traditional Fish and Chip Shop is still popular but there are more and more Pizzerias and Burger Bars, too.

PUBS

The «Pub» or «Public House» is part of the British tradition. It is a place where you can meet people, chat, listen to music, play darts and, of course, have a drink. The most common drink served is beer (called ale, bitter, stout or lager), but you can also choose wine, cocktails, spirits or soft (non-alcoholic) drinks.

Most pubs serve food, too. There are no waiters in the pubs.

Look through the text. Get ready to discuss.

Fast food facts

What is fast food and why is it so popular?

Fast food refers to food that can be prepared and served quickly. Fast food restaurants usually have a walk up counter and/or drive-thru window where you order and pick up your food without having to wait long. They're popular because they serve filling foods that taste good and don't cost a lot of money. However, the food is often made with cheaper ingredients such as high fat meat, refined grains, and added sugar and fats, instead of nutritious ingredients.

Is fast food bad?

There is no such thing as a «bad» food, but there are some foods you should try not to have on a regular basis. Because fast food is high in sodium, saturated fat, trans fat, and cholesterol, it isn't something you should eat often. Eating too much over a long period of time can lead to health problems such as high blood pressure, heart disease, and obesity. Fast food also lacks many of the nutrients, vitamins, and minerals our bodies need. It's helpful to remember that with fast food, moderation is important.

Is some fast food healthier than others?

Many fast food chains are changing their menus so there are more healthy options to choose from. For example, some chains no longer serve foods with trans fat, and many have menu items that contain fruits and vegetables. If you're having fast food more than once a week, try to make healthier choices. Here are some tips:

• Go light on the toppings

Choose oil-based salad dressings instead of creamy ones.

Use mustard or ketchup instead of mayonnaise.

Top your sandwiches with veggies such as onions, lettuce, and tomatoes instead of bacon or extra cheese.

Don't add more salt to your meal.

• Know how your food is made

Choose foods that are broiled, steamed or grilled over fried ones.

Choose soups that are not cream based.

Dishes labeled deep-fried, pan-fried, basted, breaded, creamy, crispy, scalloped, or in cream sauce are usually high in calories and unhealthy fats.

Ask for sauces to be served on the side and use just a small amount.

• Practice Portion Control

Order smaller entree portions.

Don't fall for the deals. If you want the deal, eat only half and save the rest for later, or split with a friend.

Balance fast food with nutritious foods throughout the day and make healthier choices whenever possible.

Give the summary of the text.

Healthy eating

Healthy eating is a way of balancing the food you eat to keep your body strong, energized, and well nourished.

• Get the vitamins and minerals your body needs

• Stay strong for sports or other activities

• Reach your maximum height (if you are still growing)

• Maintain a healthy weight

• Prevent unhealthy eating habits, like skipping meals and feeling overly hungry at the next meal

What is «healthy eating?»

Aiming for regular meals (usually 3 meals per day in the morning, afternoon, and evening) and healthy snacks (when you are hungry or need extra energy)

Eating foods from all of the food groups (grains, fruits, vegetables, proteins, dairy proteins, and healthy fats) each day to meet your nutritional needs

Balancing nutrient-rich foods with moderate amounts of other foods, such as sweets or fast foods

Eating when hungry and stopping when full
