A typical British student has three meals a day.
Whether you live in a host family or a student apartment, you have two choices: full accommodation and self-care. If you rent your own apartment, you have to cook for yourself. Therefore, when considering eating, we should also consider our favorite accommodation choices. First, think about it. Do you like western food? Although the meals provided by different host families/schools are different, they are all European dishes on the whole. Usually, the host family will provide breakfast and dinner, and three meals on weekends. The school dormitory provides three meals on weekdays and may not provide meals on weekends. It's a good idea for you who are too lazy to cook. When the time comes, you will naturally have food to eat, and you don't have to wash dishes at ordinary times. Because British families and schools have large dishwashers, all you have to do is throw the dishes in.

If you naturally hate western food and can't accept it, buy food and cook by yourself! Our thoughtfulness has made a fool's guide for those friends who have never bought vegetables: go to the supermarket to buy things. Friends who have bought vegetables can also learn about the differences of some British supermarkets from here.

I want to remind you that the smoke exhaust fan and fire detection system in British kitchens are designed for mild western food. Be sure to control the smoke screen when cooking, or a fireman will ask you to sign it later, which will be embarrassing. Also, some host families don't welcome you to cook Chinese food because they are afraid of lampblack. Therefore, you must find a host family without such restrictions.

It is not difficult to eat Chinese food in Britain, but it is difficult to eat authentic Chinese food. For northerners, eating Cantonese food or Hong Kong-style Chinese food is still unaccustomed, not to mention it has long been British. For example, what is Britain's favorite Chinese food? Sticky old meat Lemon chicken? They are all sweet and sour things, and they can't eat the original flavor of meat. When it comes to eating meat, people in China look miserable. I think English meat just doesn't smell good. Needless to say, chickens produced on modern farms have probably been heard of, and there is also a kind of turkey, which is a traditional Christmas food in the West. Of course, it is also sold at ordinary times. The meat is rough and tasteless. Most people dare not eat beef at all. Mad cow disease in Britain is quite terrible. British pork tastes strange, because British people always talk about pigs when they kill them. The pig was electrocuted and did not bleed. So it tastes strange. If you can find something marked. Halal? Fresh meat means that it was slaughtered according to Islamic law, and it was spared blood.

When it comes to diet, you can't help but mention wine. The most famous wine in Britain is of course scotch whisky. But we don't have happiness for the time being, and we treasure it in the depths of the salute box? It's for relatives and friends who are going back to China. Brandy and wine in France are often drunk. Sure, what's the most common drink? Draft beer? And then what? Light beer? It tastes bitter. I don't know why English people kneel before them every night.

A typical meal

1, breakfast: ASDA/ Tesco's cheapest bread with butter/jam/cheese. Fried eggs (if you have enough time). Milk is still very simple and convenient, but you can't eat it all the time.

2. Lunch: British people don't pay much attention to lunch. They always eat potato chips and chocolate. If you don't live in a dormitory or rent a house far from school, bring your own homemade sandwich. In Britain, the lunch break usually starts at 65438+ 0: 00 noon, which is very uncomfortable when I first came.

3, dinner: I always feel that there is no choice in Britain, lentils and cabbage are very expensive. Tomato, broccoli, cabbage.

Can we see one? All English? Three meals a day for Beijing girls in Britain. It is said that she has never cooked Chinese food by herself during her two years in England. We can also get a glimpse of the whole leopard from her eating habits. In the morning, add a cup of English black tea, a bowl of semi-skimmed milk, a banana cut into small pieces, and a little oatmeal or cornflakes. The homemade sandwich for lunch consists of sliced pork and ham bread, lettuce leaves, cheese, canned food and pickled cucumber. Cook spaghetti for dinner, chicken legs and broccoli mixed with salad dressing. There is yogurt or ice cream for dinner. Of course, this is just her recipe for one day.

Great changes and improvements have taken place in the British diet in the past ten years. Now you can find food and delicious food from all over the world in restaurants and restaurants in various cities in Britain. If you plan to eat in a restaurant, there are restaurants representing different countries and different ethnic food cultures for you to choose from. You can find the restaurant you want by consulting the local guidebook.

Every city has a Chinatown, where there are many restaurants in China, offering food from different parts of China for you to choose from. In the city center, there are usually restaurants and restaurants from all over the world, and some bars and takeout shops also provide traditional English food.

If you cook by yourself, there are many supermarkets, butcher shops or greengrocers in every city for you to choose from. In these places, you can buy food from all over the world, so you don't have to worry about not finding your favorite food. Usually, the food in the supermarket is cheaper than that in other stores. You can buy some food that is easy to take to school. Among many kinds of food, China food, India-Pakistan food and pizza are usually popular with students and easy to carry. In addition, don't forget that traditional English food, fish and chips can be bought in local small English takeout shops.
