A For our lunch meeting with the investors, do we have to make a reservation at the restaurant or do we just show up?

我们中午要和投资方见面，需要向饭店预定位置吗?还是直接过去？

BUsually for lunch, we don't have to reserve a table, they should allow walk-ins. But to be on the safe side, I'll order a table for half-past twelve. Will that suit your schedule?

一般中午饭，我们不需要提前预定位子，他们应该能够接纳未预约的客人。但是为了保险起见，我去预定12点半商务一桌。这和你的时间安排不冲突吧？

A I've arranged to meet them at the restaurant at twelve. Can you make the reservation a little earlier? If we start earlier, it will give us more time for a longer lunch.

我已经安排与他们12点在饭店见面，你能把预约的时间再稍微提前一点吗？如果我们早点开始的话，我们就可以留出更多的时间吃午饭.

B Are you planning on treating the investors to a full-course meal?

你打算请投资方吃一顿丰盛的午餐吗？

AYes, we'll start with appetizers, follow with a soup and salad course, then main dishes of prime rib or cordon bleu chicken, and finish up with a delicious rich dessert of some sort.

是的，我们先上些开胃甜品，接着是汤和沙拉，然后主菜是上等的排骨或一流厨师烧的鸡，最后是各种美味的餐后甜点。

B That'll be pretty heavy for a mid-day meal, don't you think?

这样的午餐会不会太腻了？

AAs along as we stay away from anything alcoholic, we should be okay.

只要我们不喝酒，应该没有问题。

B With your prime rib and chicken choices, you'd better hope nobody's vegetarian.

有了上等的排骨和鸡肉，你最好希望大家都不是素食者。

A We can make some special arrangement if we need to. After all, it's the company who is footing the bill.

如果有必要我们可以个别再安排，毕竟是公司买单。
