【intermediate】step2: 中级进阶

a: how did you enjoy your family party at “ginger’s”? i hear that they have a lovely menu and buffet.

b: oh, it was great. we had the seafood buffet. they do one every friday. the waiters and waitresses are very good. they are very attentive, but don’t hang around the table.

a: i like the buffets they have, but i often order a la carte, because i don’t feel extremely hungry. i like the wine list there too.

b: yes, so do i. they have wines from all over the world. there is a good range of prices to suit every pocket. we ordered some australian red wine, which tasted delicious and wasn’t very expensive.

a: some restaurants allow you to take your own wine and just charge you corkage, but they don’t do that at “ginger’s”. what was included in the seafood buffet?

b: they had almost every kind of seafood. there were oysters, shrimp, prawns, crabs, and fish. i ate a lot of smoked salmon.

a: did they have lobster?

b: no, they didn’t. you could order it from the menu. i think that lobster is too expensive to be included in the buffet.

a: yes, it probably is. i don’t like ordering oysters in restaurants. you never know whether they are fresh.

b: i know. i didn’t eat any, but a few people in our group did and no one got sick.

a: when you eat out, do you usually eat from the buffet?

b: not usually. i usually just order a main course and have a dessert if i’m still hungry afterwards.

a: oh, you don’t usually have a starter?

b: no, i might have a soup if it’s a cold winter day.
