Are you hungry? No? Good,
because the subject in this post is food!
British people usually eat
sliced bread. There
are bakeries but people do not usually buy fresh bread. A sandwich in Britain usually
contains butter or margarine.
Restaurant
vocabulary
Some words are very
specific, so it’s a good idea to learn exactly what they mean. For example,
what is a menu? It’s a list of all the food you can order in a restaurant. But
if you only want the two dishes and the dessert that the restaurant has prepared
for the day, you have to ask for the set
meal. By the way, the two dishes that you eat before the dessert are called the
first course and the second course.
And what is a plate? It
isn’t part of a meal - it’s where you put your food! Which of these is hot
food: crisps or chips?
When you go to a café, there
are a number of things you can ask for. If you only want coffee, you ask for a black coffee. If you want coffee with
some milk, you can ask for a small white
coffee or a white coffee.
Remember that white coffee is bigger
than small white coffee.
If you want
espresso-type coffee, you can also use the Italian names for these coffees.
Some of the most popular are cappuccinos, café lattes and mochas.
National specialities
Here are some favourite types
of British food:

and easy to make!
Scotch eggs- Mmm! My favourite snack!
