At the Restaurant…

在餐厅里

Jeff and Julie are looking for a place to eat.

杰夫和朱莉在找地方吃饭。

Jeff:What do you say we stop in at that burger joint over there and grab a bite?

杰夫：我们到那家汉堡店去随便吃点东西怎么样？

Julie:Fat chance! If you think I'd ever set foot in that dive again, you've got a screw loose. The last time I ate that slop, I almost lost it! Besides, the service stinks there, too. It was the first time I ever stiffed a waiter.

朱莉：我才不去呢！你神经没搭错吧，以为我还会再进那家小吃店！我上次吃了那些乱七八糟的东西，差点没吐出来。而且，那里的服务也很差劲，那回可是我第一次没给小费。

Jeff:Yeah. I had a sneaking suspicion it was going be like that right off the bat. Not seeing a living soul anywhere sort of tipped me off. Hey! How about that one over there?

杰夫：是啊。我一开始就觉得不对劲，里面空荡荡的，一个人也没有，嗨！那边的那家怎么样！

Julie:Oh, come of it! That place is too ritzy for us. It costs an arm and a leg!

朱莉：噢，算了吧！那地方太高级了，我们消费不起。

Jeff: Don't have a cow. It's on me.

杰夫：别担心，我来请客。

Julie:In that case, I'm right behind you.

朱莉：要是那样，我就跟你去。

(moments later…)

(片刻之后)

Julie:I can't wail to chow down.

朱莉：我等不及了。

Jeff:Just don't order everything on the menu, okay? I know how much you can polish off in one sitting. You're such a porker, it's amazing you're not some kind of blimp.

杰夫：菜单上的菜别见了什么都点，好吗？我知道你一口气能吃下多少东西。不过你这么能吃，居然没长成个大胖子倒是件怪事。

Julie:So, I'm into food. Listen, I have lo run to the john. Just order me a deluxe burger but hold the fries. I want to save room for dessert to wash it down!

朱莉：我就是喜欢吃。哎，我得去趟洗手间。给我要一个大汉堡，但炸薯条就不要了，我想留着肚子到最后好吃甜点。
