JASON: It's 6:00. Let's go get something to eat.
MIMI: Alright.
JASON: What would you like?
MIMI: I don't really care. Whatever you want.
JASON: Well, what do you feel like?
MIMI: It doesn't matter. I'm sick of the food here. So it doesn't really matter.
JASON: Why do you always complain about the food here?
MIMI: Are you kidding? American food is lousy.
JASON: It isn't lousy. There is a lot of variety1. You are just prejudiced.
MIMI: I'm not prejudiced. It's lousy.It's all beef and potatoes and pizza. And sandwiches and beef and burritoes.And burritoes and beef and potatoes and fried2 chicken.I'm sick of it!
JASON: You know, I have three Taiwanese friends in town.And they all complain about the food. It's really strange.And we even have a Chinese restaurant here. MIMI: That isn't real Chinese food. It's American Chinese food. It's lousy.
JASON: Well, what about American restaurants in Taiwan? Are they real American food?
MIMI: Yes, they are. They are exactly the same as they are here.But the Chinese restaurants here aren't as good as in Taiwan. So, you see? It's not fair.
JASON: You Taiwanese are always complaining about food. You whine3 too much.
MIMI: It's because the food in Taiwan is so good.We miss it. We even dream about it at night.
JASON: Hmm. But in this town we have all kinds of ethnic4 restaurants.We have Greek5 restaurants, Italian restaurants,Mexican restaurants, and Japanese restaurants.So you should be able to find something you like.
MIMI: No, it's impossible. But if you want to have dinner,why don't we go to the Japanese restaurant? I feel like some good noodle soup.
JASON: Alright, that sounds good to me. I'm flexible6. I'm not a big baby.
MIMI: Listen, Jason.Until you have the food in Taiwan, you will never understand. It is really very very good. JASON: I'll go there. Next year, maybe. And maybe I'll miss American food.
MIMI: You won't. Believe me. You won't.
杰森:六点了,我们去吃东西吧。
咪咪:好。
杰森:你想吃什么?
咪咪:我不是很在乎,看你吧。
杰森:你想吃什么嘛?
咪咪:无所谓,我厌恶这里的食物,所以真的无所谓。
杰森:为什么你总是抱怨这里的食物?
咪咪:开什么玩笑,美国食物太难吃了杰森:不难吃啊,有各式各样的选择。你就是有偏见。
咪咪:我才没有偏见,是很难吃。全是牛肉、马铃薯和披萨。三明治、牛肉和墨西哥软饼。墨西哥软饼、牛肉、马铃薯和炸鸡。我厌恶透了。
杰森:我在镇上有三个台湾朋友他们也都抱怨食物,真是奇怪。而且我们这里甚至就有一家中国餐厅。
咪咪:那不是道地的中国菜,那是美式中国菜,很难吃。
杰森:那么台湾的美国餐厅呢?是道地的美国食物吗?
咪咪:是的,和这里的完全一样。
但是这里的中国菜没有台湾的好吃。你看吧,不公平。
杰森:你们台湾人总是抱怨食物难吃,你们太啰唆了。
咪咪:那是因为台湾的食物太好吃了。我们很怀念,晚上都还会梦到呢!
杰森:但是在镇上有各个民俗餐厅:有希腊餐厅、意大利餐厅、墨西哥餐厅和日本料理,所以应该可以找到喜欢吃的。
咪咪:不可能。不过你要吃晚餐,那我们就去吃日本料理吧,我想吃好吃的汤面。
杰森:好啊,听起来不错。我都可以,我又不是大娃娃。
咪咪:杰森,你听好。等你吃过台湾的食物,你才会了解。台湾食物真的是非常好吃。
杰森:我会去的,明年吧。可能我也会怀念美国食物。
咪咪:你不会的,相信我,你不会。
