Lições de Inglês em um restaurante

TRAVEL ENGLISH - RESTAURANT

Os americanos (além de outras culturas europeias) têm hábitos de comer e beber bastante diferentes dos brasileiros. O americano gosta de tomar um café da manhã reforçado, sobretudo nos fins de semana. Costumam jantar cedo, geralmente antes das 21:00. É costume para um americano levar o que sobrou de uma refeição para casa. Raramente se fuma em um restaurante nos Estados Unidos, e o serviço não é incluído nunca na conta a não ser que se trate de um grupo grande (geralmente mais de cinco pessoas). A gorjeta não pode ser menos de 10% ou mais de 20% (só se for um serviço especialmente bom). Cuidado quando for pedir água: se pedir só água, será da torneira mesmo. E treine a pronúncia antes de dizer water, que em inglês americano se pronuncia algo como “uara”.
