重要字詞講解：1. reserve (v.) 預訂
例：I'm sorry, Miss. The table is reserved.
（我很抱歉，小姐。那張桌子已經被預訂了。）
例：I called the restaurant and reserved a table for you and your friend.
（我打了電話給餐廳，幫你和你的朋友預訂了一張桌子。）
2. fantastic (adj.) 很棒的；了不起的
例：There're fantastic night scenes outside the window.
（窗外有迷人的夜景。）
例：That was a fantastic night. It was like a dream come true.
（那真是一個很棒的夜晚，就好像美夢成真一樣。）
※小叮嚀
fantastic 用在平日的對話上，以正面的意思居多。
3. recommend (v.) 推薦
例：Would you like to recommend anything special?
（你有要推薦什麼特別的嗎？）
例：He recommended me some of the best restaurants in town.
（他推薦我幾間全市最好的餐廳。）
※小叮嚀
recommend 是授與動詞，所以句型是「recommend + 人 + 物」或「recommend + 物 + to + 人」。
4. specialty (n.) 招牌菜
例：例：You could try the gratinated lobster with cream sauce, which is one of our specialties.
（您可以試試奶油焗烤龍蝦，這是我們的招牌菜之一。）
例：A: What's the specialty of the house? B: Their scallops are great.
（A: 這家餐廳的招牌是什麼？ B: 他們的扇貝很好吃。）
5. a la carte 單點（的菜）
例：These dishes can be ordered as a la carte.
（這些餐點都是可以單點的。）
例：I don't like buffet. Can I order a la carte?
（我不喜歡吃到飽，可以單點嗎？）
※小叮嚀
"a la carte" 是法文，意思是單點菜單上所列的食物，而不是套餐。套餐的英文是 "set meal"。
