English food
Foreign visitors to England often ask people for advice on a good restaurant but when their host suggest one to them it is usually Italian or Friench. “But I mean a typically English restaurant,” they say. So as not to disappoint them, the host answers as best as he can. The truth is that English people enjoy their own cooking at home but are often ashamed of its in public. Even the experts who write articles on food prefer to use the French word “cuisine”, which suggests that cooking is inferior.
In fact, English cooking is not nearly so bad as people think. The trouble with it, in my opinion, is that most appetizing typical dishes do not go with the wine. At home, English people usually drink either water or beer or even (however strange it may seem) tea with their meals; in restaurant, they sometimes think they had better order wine for the sake of appearances.
1. It is difficult to find a typically English restaurant in England.
2. English people don’t enjoy their own cooking at home but are often proud of its in public
3. According to the author, English people use the French word “cuisine”, which means that they undervalue the cooking.
4. It is thought that English food is terrible and actually it is.
5. English food is terrible because all most appetizing typical dishes do not go with the wine.
