10 things you should NOT order on a first date
First dates can be awkward, and most people don't know how to act. And if you're going out to dinner, getting the wrong type of food can make everything even more uncomfortable. So here's a suggested list of things you should NOT order on a first date.
第一次約會(huì)本就可能會(huì)令人尷尬,而大多數(shù)人又并不知道該怎么來。如果你約了人共進(jìn)晚餐,點(diǎn)錯(cuò)菜會(huì)讓場(chǎng)面更加尷尬。因此為了幫助大家避免出現(xiàn)這樣的情況,這里列出了一些食物,第一次約會(huì)千萬別點(diǎn)這些哦!
1. Spaghetti and Meatballs
意大利面和肉球
Slurping and chewing your long noodles will only add to the awkward pauses in conversation. Red sauce is also notoriously known to splatter; whether it's on your clothes or on your date.
吃出聲音咀嚼你碗里長(zhǎng)長(zhǎng)的面條只會(huì)讓你們的對(duì)話陷入尷尬的沉默。眾所周知紅色的醬汁經(jīng)常很容易就會(huì)濺出來:無論是濺你身上還是你約會(huì)的對(duì)象身上。
Alternative: Gnocchi. This small dough dumpling is easy to eat and will save you from a shirt-stain disaster.
備選:意大利土豆丸子。這個(gè)小丸子吃起來方便,還不會(huì)有弄臟你上衣的危險(xiǎn)。
2. Ribs and Wings
排骨和雞翅
There's a reason why they come served with bibs and towelettes. Don't order anything that requires a lot of man-handling, it's just not attractive.
這些菜送上來的時(shí)候常會(huì)帶有圍嘴和小圍巾,這是有理由的。不要點(diǎn)任何吃起來要大費(fèi)周章的菜,因?yàn)槌云饋硪稽c(diǎn)不迷人。
Alternative: Steak. While it may be on the pricier side, it's neater and easier to eat. So get your meat, but look classy too.
備選:牛排。雖然牛排貴了點(diǎn),但是它整齊勻稱,而且吃起來很方便。所以吃肉歸吃肉,但要吃的優(yōu)雅。
