實(shí)戰(zhàn)口語(yǔ)情景對(duì)話：Belgium Dining 比利時(shí)餐飲

Ade: Now Chris, in our last conversation you told me you come from Belgium. And I would like to know, what kind of food do you eat in Belgium?

阿德琳娜：克里斯，上次你告訴我你來(lái)自比利時(shí)。我想知道比利時(shí)人吃什么?

Chris: What kind of food, well we eat all kinds of food. I mean there's no restrictions or anything. We have our fish, our meat, our wines, our fruits, our veggies, we eat all kinds of food.

克里斯：哪種食物，我們吃各種各樣的食物。我的意思是沒(méi)有限制。我們有魚、肉、葡萄酒、水果、蔬菜，我們吃各種各樣的食物。

Ade: Yeah, I know. But I mean what is popular about Belgium food?

阿德琳娜：我知道。我是問(wèn)哪種食物在比利時(shí)比較受歡迎?

Chris: Well if you talk about gastronomy, it's a bit different in Belgium as I think it is in Spain. I mean in Belgium we really enjoy the tables. We don't go out for dinner that often but when we go out we stay on a table for four hours. I mean it starts with little entrants, then it's maybe a soup, then it's the main dish, then it's still an ice-cream or something. I mean it takes long so we really enjoy eating and it goes slow. For example, at Christmas, for Christmas we meet at maybe 5:30, 6 o'clock and then we start already with aperitifs and it goes all night long, I think we eat from 6 o'clock in the afternoon till 12 o'clock at night.

克里斯：就美食學(xué)來(lái)說(shuō)，我認(rèn)為比利時(shí)的看法同西班牙有些不一樣。比利時(shí)人非常享受餐桌時(shí)光。我們一般不去外面吃晚餐，不過(guò)如果我們外出吃晚飯的話，我們的就餐時(shí)間一般需要四個(gè)小時(shí)。開(kāi)始先是一些小吃，然后是湯，接下來(lái)是主菜，最后還有冰激凌。我們的就餐時(shí)間很長(zhǎng)，我們吃飯時(shí)非常享受，而且我們吃得很慢。舉個(gè)例子，圣誕節(jié)時(shí)我們一般會(huì)約在5點(diǎn)半或6點(diǎn)，然后從開(kāi)胃菜開(kāi)始，我們會(huì)吃一個(gè)晚上，我想大概從下午6點(diǎn)一直吃到晚上12點(diǎn)。

Ade: Wow! So you must be fat people there in Belgium if you eat that much.

阿德琳娜：哇哦!如果吃這么多，那比利時(shí)一定很多胖人。

Chris: Well that's why I just said, we don't do it that often, but if we do it we really enjoy it and then of course next day or next few days you see people just don't eat anything.

克里斯：所以我們不是經(jīng)常這樣吃，不過(guò)如果我們?nèi)ネ饷娉酝聿偷脑挘覀儠?huì)非常享受，當(dāng)然第二天或者說(shuō)接下來(lái)的幾天，你會(huì)看到人們基本上不怎么吃東西。
