　　Cocktail鸡尾酒

　　It is quite usual to drink cocktails before lunch and dinner in America and somewhat less usual, except in California, to drink wine with a meal. You can either have a cocktail in the bar, if there is one, while you wait for a table or for friends, or you can have one served before your dinner comes. At some restaurants the waiter/waitress will come to your table as soon as you sit down to ask if you want a cocktail, and you can then drink this while deciding what to order to eat. At others, there may be a separate cocktail waiter or waitress. In this case, you do not normally order wine from him or her but from the normal waiter- or the wine waiter is there is one.

　　Do not hesitate to order Californian wines. They can be excellent and in many parts of the country are cheap.

　　美国用餐常识

　　中国菜着重色、香、味， 西餐讲究实惠。初到美国餐馆用餐，应该注意如下事项：

　　1)选择合适的餐馆(如：家庭式餐馆、特色餐馆以及自助式餐馆等);

　　2)餐馆营业时间(上午11：30开门营业，直到夜晚);

　　3)一般都应事先预订餐位：

　　4)到达餐馆后，不能径直地到餐桌旁入桌，除非餐厅有“随意就坐”的告示;

　　5)付款时，别忘了留给服务员一定比例的小费(一般为实际总额的10%～15%)。

　　Eating out is one of the joy of being in the USA. The food is usually good and often excellent; the prices are reasonable ; and the service is mostly fine.

　　Choosing a Restaurant 选择餐馆

　　Some restaurants are open for breakfast; others are open twenty-four hours a day. A number of restaurants call themselves "family restaurants". Many of these serve no alcohol and have fairly restricted menus which include steaks, hamburgers, omelettes(炒蛋) and sandwiches, and all are at very reasonable prices. They may also serve smaller and cheaper children's portios(份餐). Note that many American restaurants are "speciatly" restaurants . They may serve only, or mainly , steaks , seafood, etc.
