FOOD, MEALS AND EATING OUT Ex. 1. a. Read the text paying attention to the words and phrases in bold. AN ENGLISHMAN'S MEALS There are four meals a day traditionally in Britain: breakfast, lunch, tea and dinner. In many countries breakfast is a snack rather than a meal but the English breakfast is a full meal, much bigger than on the Continent. Some people begin with a plateful of porridge but more often cornflakes with milk and sugar, a toast, cereal, fruit and tea or coffee. At the weekends people eat the traditional ‘English’ breakfast: fried bacon, sausages, eggs, tomatoes, baked beans, mushrooms and fried bread. The British have breakfast at about eight o'clock in the morning, Most British people now have such a full breakfast only on Sunday mornings. On weekdays it is usually a quick meal just cornflakes, toast and tea. Lunch is also a light meal. People usually eat soup (which consists of meat, poultry or fish and a plenty of vegetables) or some sandwiches at around 1 o’clock. Dinner is the most substantial meal of the day. The usual time is about seven o'clock and all the members of the family sit down together. The first course might be soup. Then comes the second course: fish or meat, perhaps the traditional roast beef of old England. Then the dessert is served: some kind of sweet. But whether a person in fact gets such a meal depends on his housekeeping budget. Some people in the towns and nearly all country people have dinner in the middle of the day instead of lunch. They have tea a little later, between five and six o'clock, when they might have a light meal — an omelette, or sausages or fried fish and chips or whatever they can afford. The main meal of the day – variously called tea, supper or dinner – is some time after 5 o’clock. The most traditional Sunday main meal is roast beef with potatoes, vegetables and gravy – a sauce made from meat juices and stock and thickened with flour. Yorkshire pudding baked in the oven is traditionally served with roast beef. At the weekends afternoon tea is a very sociable time. Friends and visitors are often present. Some people like to have the so-called "high tea" which is a mixture of tea and supper — for example meat, cheese and fruit may be added to bread and butter, pastries and tea. Then before going to bed, they may have a light snack or supper — e. g. a cup of hot milk with a sandwich or biscuit. The evening meal as we have said already goes under various names: tea, "high tea", dinner or supper depending upon its size and also the social standing of those eating it. British eating habits are very different now from thirty years ago. In most towns there are Chinese and Indian restaurants but in big cities you can also eat Japanese, Thai, Korean and Malaysian food. These restaurants are often cheaper than European ones and many people think that the food is more interesting. Take-away food is also very popular in Britain. There are fish and chips shops everywhere as well as restaurants selling fast food like pizzas and hamburgers. b. Identify the following statements as T (true) or F (false) and correct the false ones. Prove your ideas. Breakfast is often the main meal of the day. People usually eat toasts, cereal, fruit and coffee or tea. The traditional ‘English’ breakfast consists of eggs, bacon, roast beef and vegetables. Lunch usually takes place at 3 or 4 o’clock. People often eat soup for breakfast. They call the main meal of the day a supper, a tea or a dinner. One usually serves roast beef with potatoes, vegetables and gravy.
