Indian Food

So where is this mystery restaurant that we are going to?

那我们到底要去哪家神秘餐厅呢？

It’s an Indian restaurant! I know you have never had Indian food, so I thought you might want to try.

是一家印度餐厅！我知道你没吃过印度菜，所以想着你可能会想试试。

That sounds great! I am craving some type of beef dish.

听起来不错！我正想吃点牛肉做的菜。

Well, Indian cuisine actually doesn’t serve beef. You see, cows are a sacred animal, a very important element inthe Hindu religion, so beef is not eaten.

嗯，印度菜其实不吃牛肉。你看，牛是神圣的动物，在印度教里是非常重要的元素，所以不吃牛肉。

I see, so what are we having? Chicken?

明白了，那我们吃什么？鸡肉吗？

There are many amazing dishes to choose from. We can havesome chicken tikka masalawhich is an amazing curry. It’s a bit spicy, but I think you can handle it.

有很多好吃的菜可以选。我们可以点鸡肉咖喱，味道很棒。有点辣，不过我觉得你能受得了。

Sounds good! I have always heard that Indian spices give a rich flavor to food.

好啊！我一直听说印度香料能带来浓郁的味道。

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 upthe curry or rice.

是啊。我们还可以点馕饼，是用土窑烤的。因为不用餐具吃，你可以用这个饼来舀咖喱或米饭。

What about veggies?

那蔬菜呢？

They have a good variety of vegetable based dishes like palak paneer, vegetable samosas or Daal.

他们有各种各样的蔬菜类菜肴，比如菠菜奶酪、蔬菜咖喱角或者豆汤。

It all sounds exquisite! I can’t wait!

听起来都太棒了！我等不及了！
