Order 1: soup and appetizer
Appetizers, also called appetizers, are "snacks" before formal meals, which play an appetizing role and have a salty and sour taste.
Nowadays, soup is generally used instead of appetizers. If there are soups and appetizers, the soup is basically served first, and then the appetizers.
Soups can be roughly divided into clear soup, cream soup, vegetable soup and cold soup. Classic and common soups include tomato cream soup, English clear soup, cream mushroom soup, curry broth and so on.
More luxurious appetizers include caviar, foie gras, smoked salmon, fish soup, English braised pork, spinach cream cake and so on. Can't remember so many names? Well, the simplest and most delicious choice is grilled mushrooms with country cream, or a salad made of fish and eggs without sauce. It's delicious. Order one of these two dishes and keep it safe.
The principle of ordering appetizers is one thing. Otherwise, it is an embarrassing faux pas to waste food on the western food table.
Order 2: Main course
In western food, meat and fish are two major components of the main course. To put it bluntly, it is nothing more than frying, roasting and frying pork chops of cattle, sheep, fish and fish.
The main course is fish first, then meat.
Fish dishes, also known as side dishes, are generally used as the third course of western food. Species include all kinds of freshwater and marine fish, shellfish and molluscs. Western food pays attention to the use of special sauces when eating fish dishes.
The meat main course will be served with oil-soaked potatoes or vegetable salad as a "side dish", which is eye-catching and delicious on the plate.
This is a general stylized main course, so ordering food is standard.
However, if it is a formal English or French restaurant, grilled assorted seafood or braised grouse are all famous dishes. If you have the chance, you can also try the famous British specialty-shepherd pie. If you see cheese meatballs, grilled mackerel with lemon juice and salt on the menu, I suggest you don't hesitate to place it.
Order 3: dessert
There has always been a saying in western food that "a meal without dessert is a fly in the ointment", so snacks or fruits after the main course are essential, which is a perfect ending. The most classic desserts are English pudding, apple pie, French plum pie or snowflake egg, Italian giant tiramisu and cheesecake, as well as all kinds of ice cream.
Order 4: Coffee, tea
There is a saying in Chinese food that "the original soup becomes the original dish". Similarly, you need a cup of coffee or black tea after the western food is over.
Chinese food should be served in the following order: cold dishes, drinks and wine first, then hot dishes, then staple food, and finally sweets and fruits. When there are many tables at a banquet, every dish on each table should be served at the same time. Generally speaking, there are several ways to serve food: first, the big dish is served and everyone takes it; Second, the waiter will give everyone a dish; The third is to serve it in a small plate, one for each person.
The serving procedure of western food is usually: bread and butter → cold dishes → soup bucket seafood → main course → dessert → coffee and fruit. Cold dishes and soup are eaten with bread. Cold dishes are also called appetizers. As the first course, they are usually used with aperitif. Soup is divided into thick soup and cream soup. The main courses are fish and pigs.
