1--So where is this mystery restaurant that we are going to?
2--It' s an Indian restaurant! I know you have never had Indian food, so I thought you might want to try.
1--That sounds great! I am craving some type of beef dish.
2--Well, Indian cuisine actually doesn' t serve beef. You see, cows are a sacred animal, a very important element in the Hindu religion, so beef is not eaten.
1--I see, so what are we having? Chicken?
2--There are many amazing dishes to choose from. We can have some chicken tikka masala which is an amazing curry. It' s a bit spicy, but I think you can handle it.
1--Sounds good! I have always heard that Indian spices give a rich flavor to food.
2--Yeah. Also, we can have some Naan bread which is baked in a tandoori oven. Since you don' t use any utensils to eat, you can use this bread to scoop up the curry or rice.
1--What about veggies?
2--They have a good variety of vegetable-based dishes like palak paneer, vegetable samosas or daal.
1--It all sounds exquisite! I can' t wait!

譯文:
1--那個(gè)我們要去的神秘的餐廳在哪兒?
2--那是個(gè)印第餐館!我知道你沒(méi)有吃過(guò)印度的食物,所以我想也許你會(huì)想嘗試一下。
1--聽(tīng)起來(lái)不錯(cuò)!我想吃牛肉菜。
2--嗯,事實(shí)上印度菜譜里沒(méi)有牛肉。你知道的,奶牛是一種很神圣的動(dòng)物,在印度教里是很重要的東西,因此牛肉是不能吃的。
1--我知道了,所以我們可以吃什么呢?雞肉嗎?
2--這里有很多美味可以選擇。我們有雞肉味的小塊香料做成的很棒的咖喱。有點(diǎn)辛辣,不過(guò)我覺(jué)得你能吃的。
1--很好!我聽(tīng)說(shuō)印度的香料讓食物味道變得很豐富。
2--是的。我們還有些在泥爐炭火鍋里制作的印度薄餅。你可以用面包來(lái)盛咖喱粉和米飯而省去了器皿。
1--那素食者呢?
2--他們有各種各樣的以蔬菜為主的菜肴,比如菠菜芝士,蔬菜三角包。
1--聽(tīng)上去它們都很美味??!我等不及想去了!
