对话：如何选择商务用餐

 

Michael: Sir, I sure am glad to see you.

Billy: Really? How may I be of service to you?

Michael: You should select the appropriate food for craft services to prepare for the guests.

Billy: Are we having a buffet this year?

Michael: Yes sir, it is serving yourself, but you still need to decide what food to put on the banquet tables.

Billy: So many choices. Can't I give the responsibility to someone else?

Michael: No, sorry, you can't.

Billy: It is lonely at the top.

迈克尔：先生，见到你真的很高兴。

比利：是么？我能为您做点什么？

迈克尔：你可以去为客人选择合适的食物让食品配送公司去准备。

比利：我们今年有自助餐么？

迈克尔：是的，先生，您可以根据自己的胃口选择，但您要决定餐桌该上哪些食品。

比利：选择太多了。我能不能让别人来做这事儿呢？

迈克尔：对不起，先生，不可以。

比利：高处不胜寒啊。

1) If you serve beer, you will be facilitating a causal atmosphere.

2) Finger food is also very casual.

3) More elegant drinks include mixed drinks and Champaign.

4) Buffets, even small ones, allow the guests to help themselves.

5) Your most important choice is picking a good craft service company to supply quality food and beverages.

6) The boss must have the finally word about what food to serve. It is lonely at the top.

1) 如果你提供的是啤酒，你为客人营造的是一种轻松、随意的气氛。

2) 手抓食品也很轻松、随意。

3) 多提供一些高档酒包括鸡尾酒和香槟酒。

4) 自助餐，即便是小规模也应让客人根据自己的喜好来选择食物。

5) 最重要的是你要找个好的食品配送公司来提供高质量的食物和饮料。

6) 老板必须拍板提供什么食品。高处不胜寒啊。

Gordon: I sure am glad to see you.

Molly : How can I help you?

Gordon: If I want to facilitate a casual atmosphere at my company dinner, what food and beverages should I serve?

Molly : Will you be hiring a craft service caterer?

Gordon: No, I will be doing it all in house.

Molly : Then I suggest you set up a buffet with appropriate finger food and draft beer.

Gordon: What about for non-drinkers?

Molly : Non-drinkers like mineral water, a variety of juices and soft drinks.

Gordon: Is that all?

Molly : You have to decide if you want regular or paper plates.

Gordon: Planning a business dinner is a hard work.

Molly : This is only the tip of the iceberg. (The beginning)

戈登：我真的很高兴见到你。

莫莉：我能为你做些什么？

戈登：如果我想使公司晚餐随意些，我该为客人准备什么呢？

莫莉：那你是不是要食品配送公司来做呢？

戈登：不，我自己就能搞定了。

莫莉：那我就建议你举办自助餐。再配上适当的手抓食品和生啤酒。

戈登：那些不喝酒的人怎么办？

莫莉：不喝酒的人喜欢喝矿泉水、各种果汁和软饮料。

戈登：就这些么？

莫莉：你还需要决定是用普通盘子还是用一次性纸盘子。

戈登：策划一个商务晚宴可真不是件容易的事啊。

莫莉：这还只是冰山一角呀（刚开始）。
