Lesson 285--some more eating related vocabulary


 
When thinking about food, I would like to teach people some useful vocabulary

eating out:  going out to eat in a restaurant.  This includes fast food as well as elegant dining.

eating in:  staying home and eating.

takeout: this describes food bought at a restaurant and taken home, or taken some other place to eat.

takeout menu: some restaurants have a different menu for takeout items than they do for sit down menus.  Sometimes this includes specials, or discount meals meant for more than one person.

refills: some restaurants offer free drink refills, meaning you can drink as much or as many of the drinks you ordered.  This does not usually include alcohol.
