A：So where is this mystery restaurant that we are going to?那个我们要去的神秘的餐厅在哪儿?

B：It' s an Indian restaurant! I know you have never had Indian food, so I thought you might want to try.那是个印度餐馆!我知道你没有吃过印度的食物，所以我想也许你会想尝试一下。

A：That sounds great! I am craving some type of beef dish.听起来不错!我想吃牛肉菜。

B：Well, Indian cuisine actually doesn' t serve beef. You see, cows are a sacred animal, a very important element in the Hindu religion, so beef is not eaten.嗯，事实上印度菜谱里没有牛肉。你知道的，奶牛是一种很神圣的动物，在印度教里是很重要的东西，因此牛肉是不能吃的。

A：I see, so what are we having? Chicken?我知道了，所以我们可以吃什么呢?鸡肉吗?

B：There are many amazing dishes to choose from. We can have some chicken tikka masala which is an amazing curry. It' s a bit spicy, but I think you can handle it.这里有很多美味可以选择。我们有鸡肉味的小块香料做成的很棒的咖喱。有点辛辣，不过我觉得你能吃的。

A：Sounds good! I have always heard that Indian spices give a rich flavor to food.很好!我听说印度的香料让食物味道变得很丰富。

B：Yeah. Also, we can have some Naan bread which is baked in a tandoori oven. Since you don' t use any utensils to eat, you can use this bread to scoop up the curry or rice.是的。我们还有些在泥炉炭火锅里制作的印度薄饼。你可以用面包来盛咖喱粉和米饭而省去了器皿。

A：What about veggies?那素食者呢?

B：They have a good variety of vegetable-based dishes like palak paneer, vegetable samosas or daal.他们有各种各样的以蔬菜为主的菜肴，比如菠菜芝士，蔬菜三角包。

A：It all sounds exquisite! I can' t wait!听上去它们都很美味啊!我等不及想去了!
