Time for Lunch

午餐时间

At a sidewalk cafe Kathy and Evan stop for lunch.

凯西和艾凡停在人行道旁的一家小馆吃午餐。

E:This is the life. Too bad we couldn't travel like this for the rest of our lives.

艾凡：这才是人生。很遗憾我们今后不能天天像这样子旅行。

K:Nah. I'd get bored with it.

凯西：不。天天这样旅行我会厌烦的。

E:Are you kidding? Why wouldn't you want to see the whole world?

艾凡：你在开玩笑吧?你为什么不想看看整个世界呢?

K:I would. But I also want to work, have a family, be with my friends,...

凯西：我想啊。但我也想工作、成家、和朋友们相聚……

E:Yeah, I get your point. "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy," but all play and no work would be weird, too.

艾凡：嗯，我懂妳的意思。“只工作不游戏使人乏味没生气”，但只游戏不工作也很怪异。

K:That's true. So, what are we having for lunch? Have you decided yet?

凯西：没错。那么，我们午餐吃什么呢?你决定了吗?

E:I think I'll try the soup du jour. It's probably a local style. I want to try local food. And the pickled herring platter looks good, too.

艾凡：我想我要试试本日特选汤。这也许是一道本地风味的料理。我想试试本地的食物。而这道腌鲱鱼盘看起来也不错。

K:All right. I'll have the fried chicken and coleslaw.

凯西：好吧。我要吃炸鸡和生菜沙拉。

E:Beverage of choice?

艾凡：要喝什么饮料?

K:Iced tea. And you'll have a beer, right?

凯西：冰茶。而你要喝啤酒，对吧?

E:Natch. I like their local Carlsberg. It's very refreshing.

艾凡：想当然耳。我喜欢当地的卡尔斯堡啤酒，非常提神解劳。

K:And dessert?

凯西：那么，甜点呢?

E:Let's wait to see how much the main course is. I don't want to be stuffed and keep on shopping.

艾凡：咱们待会儿看看主菜的量有多少再说吧。我不想撑着肚子继续购物。

K:Good point. Oh, waiter!

凯西：有道理。喂，服务生!
