LESSON 31
plate, dish, course

Interviewer: So, what are the main differences between Western and Eastern food?

Chef: Well, Western food often has three courses. So you can have soup first and then meat and vegetables as the main dish. The sweet is last.

Interviewer: What about Eastern food?

Chef: All the dishes are served at the same time. So there is no special order for eating soup, vegetables, meat and rice.

Interviewer: And what about serving the food?

Chef: Well with Western food the main dish is usually served on plates but sweets and soups are served in dishes. Eastern food uses lots of smaller dishes for everything. The dishes keep the food hot.

Interviewer: So, Western food served on large flat plates gets colder quicker.

Chef: Exactly.
