The other night my American friend and I decided that we would try a different restaurant for dinner (since we have fallen into the habit of eating at the same places everytime we go out). When we sat down at the restaurant we could in no way read the menu so we asked the waitress to read it to us. She didn't really seem to want to read it, so she just kind of told us what they had. We quickly realized that this would work because we didn't really understand what she was saying. I know meat and vegetable names, but as far as knowing the names of dishes, I am lost. So we just decide to order two vegetables that we knew we liked and told her to decide how to cook them. We then proceeded in ordering fried rice, but they had many varieties, so we again let her decide. After ordering we said to eachother, "well, it is a mystery dinner." The suspense was a little fun.
Our first dish came and it was exactly what we wanted (green beans cooked a special way), then our carrots and pork came (you can't mess that up). When our rice came though, it was not quite what I was expecting. I don't like eating spicy hot foods, and this stuff was smoking. It also came with a hot dog weiner and a basted egg. Not to mention, it was a ton of rice.
Two out of Three isn't bad. Maybe next time I will remember to bring our food list.
