原文及翻译

In some restaurants, the waiter does not bring the meal to your table. Instead, after you are taken to a table, you then go to a counter called a buffet. There, you can select different types of foods, such as salads, soup, meats, breads, vegetables, and desserts. After putting the food on your plate, you return to your table. After eating, you can return to the buffet to get more food.

在一些餐厅，服务员不会把餐点送到您的餐桌上。相反，在您被带到餐桌后，您就会去一个叫做自助餐的柜台。在那里，您可以选择不同类型的食物，如沙拉、汤、肉类、面包、蔬菜和甜点。将食物放在盘子里后，您回到餐桌。吃完饭后，您可以回到自助餐台去取更多的食物。

Other restaurants can be very fancy. They may have beautiful decorations, and they may have food that is prepared by expert chefs. These restaurants may also serve fine wines with the food. Of course, these restaurants are very expensive. At these restaurants, it is often necessary to reserve a table by telephoning the restaurant in advance.

其他餐厅可能非常高档。它们可能有漂亮的装饰，可能有由专业厨师烹制的食物。这些餐厅可能还会搭配上等葡萄酒。当然，这些餐厅非常昂贵。在这些餐厅，通常需要提前打电话预订餐桌。

Different restaurants specialize in different kinds of food. Fast food restaurants may specialize in hamburgers or chicken. Some restaurants specialize in steak or seafood. Other restaurants specialize in foods that belong to a certain nationality, for example, many restaurants specialize in Italian, Mexican, Chinese, Indian, or Thai food. Eating out at a restaurant can be a fun and tasty experience. What is your favorite kind of restaurant?
