Task1. Read the text and answer the questions. EATING OUT
Are you looking for somewhere special to go this weekend? Do you want to try something new?Check out one of these hot new restaurants.
This week’s top recommendations
A.Last Days of the Raj.
A centrally located Indian restaurant, perfect for eating before or after the cinema or a show. In summer enjoy your meal in the beautiful garden. The most popular dishes are lamb and chicken cooked with mild, medium or hot spices. For brave customers there is extra hot.
B. A Taste of Tuscany.
Wherever you’d like a great value-for-money lunch or a relaxed evening in stylish surroundings, this is the place for you. The chefs have all been trained in Italy and they make both traditional and contemporary dishes. We recommend the pasta and seafood.
C.Your Local Caff.
Remember when cafes served full English breakfasts – sausages, beans, fried bread, eggs and bacon – with a strong cup of tea? Well, this place still does and you can have your breakfast at any time you like during the day while you listen to your favourite tunes from the 1980s.
D. The Lemon Tree.
This pretty restaurant serves healthy food that is tasty too. Come in for a vegetarian snack at lunchtime or a great fruit smoothie or a cappuccino and a delicious piece of cake in the afternoon. Food is bought from local producers whenever possible. This restaurant is for vegetarian.
E. Fast Best
Fast Food doesn’t have to be junk food, as this café proves. Do you fancy a really good hamburger made with the best ingredients, or old-fashioned fish and chips fried to perfection, all on the table in super-quick time? Speed and quality are important here, and the prices aren’t bad either.
F. The Chocolate Box
The owner of this small café used to cook all kinds of food, but then she realized she preferred desserts to anything else. If you want meat of fish, don’t come here. They only do desserts. Lots of different kinds of sweets. Chocolate lovers will be excited by the range of chocolate cakes.
G. Musical Chairs
Have you noticed how music improves the taste of your food? This new restaurant has different types of live music every night except Sundays, and excellent food to go with it. Great fish dishes, steak and pizza. Monday is classic rock night, so see you there!
