Eating out
Task 1. Read the texts about different eating places given in the box. Guess which place to eat is described in each text.
fast food restaurant
mobile canteen wine bar
picnic site
restaurant motorway service station
A ………………………….
The atmosphere is usually quite formal so people often choose to eat there on special occasions. The menu is varied and different dishes are freshly prepared each day. In addition, there is a good selection of wines. However, prices are usually expensive and start from around £15 per head. It is also necessary to make a reservation, so you need to plan in advance.
B ………………………….
You can find these places everywhere – parked at the side of the road, in parks, funfairs and at exhibitions. For this reason, they are convenient for travellers and they provide cheap food and rapid service. However, the food is usually greasy and there is only a small section of items on offer, such as hot dogs, pies, chips and hot and cold drinks.
C ………………………….
This is a popular place with people who want to meet for a drink at lunchtime or in the early evening and have a bite to eat at the same time. The atmosphere is fairly relaxed and informal. There is a fine selection of wines available and a choice of bottled beers, and a few dishes, such as lasagne and chilli, are usually served each day. The only problem is that seating place is limited and as the place can be very crowded it is not always possible to find a table.
D ………………………….
This is an ideal place to eat in the summer. You can choose your own spot and enjoy the fresh air and scenic views. People usually take their own food with them, such as sandwiches, crisps, cakes, fruit and fizzy drinks, so it’s a cheap option. You do, there, prepare your own food beforehand and clear up afterwards – there’s no one to do it all for you. Also, you have to rely on the weather and a sudden downpour can soon spoil your meal!
E ……………………………
This makes a convenient meeting place and is especially popular with young people as the atmosphere is extremely informal, the service is rapid and the prices are low. Food on offer includes hamburgers, French fries and fizzy drinks. Older people, however, prefer to eat somewhere else as they don’t consider junk food appealing and usually find the place too noisy and overcrowded.
F ……………………….
People usually stop here for a bite to break up a long journey. There is a wide selection of ready cooked, self-service meals and as these places are open 24 hours a day, they are extremely convenient for travellers. The only problem is that they tend to get overcrowded, especially on public holidays and the food is usually overpriced.
Task 2. Choose two types of place to eat and talk about their advantages and disadvantages. Use the information from the texts above and some of the useful expressions.
Useful expressions
the best thing about some people prefer … because one of the disadvantages of in my opinion/view |
a drawback of what I like/don’t like about the problem with
|
e.g. What I like about fast food restaurant is that you get rapid service and the food is quite cheap. The problem with them is that they can get noisy and overcrowded.
Task 3. Choose two places to eat and compare the kinds of food and drinks you get there. Use the information from the texts (exercise 1) and some of the useful expressions.
Useful expressions
On the whole You can expect … You’ll usually find … Whereas/but |
similar to… Generally which is similar in so far as … |
e.g. On the whole you get freshly cooked meals in a restaurant, whereas you can expect much of the food in a motorway service station to be ready cooked. You’ll usually find that restaurants and service stations are similar in so far as they both have a wide selection of food.
Task 4. Here are some things people may expect when choosing a place to eat out. Use the list to complete the table below.
