Vegan at a Steakhouse: Asking for Changes

Honestly, this place does the best steak in London!

說真的，這家是全倫敦牛排最好吃的！

Well... great for you. I'm not sure there's much here for me.

嗯……對你來說是不錯啦。我不確定這裡有什麼我能吃的。

Oh, come on, they must have something without meat.

哎唷，一定有不含肉的菜啦。

We'll see. I'll ask what can be done.

再看看吧。我問問看能怎麼處理。

Good evening! Have you had a chance to look at the menu?

晚安！兩位看過菜單了嗎？

Actually, I was wondering if you could help me.

其實，我想請你幫個忙。

I'm vegan, so no meat, dairy or eggs.

我吃全素，所以不吃肉、乳製品和蛋。

Of course. Let me see what can be arranged.

當然可以。我看看能怎麼安排。

The mushroom risotto is usually made with butter and parmesan,

蘑菇燉飯通常是用奶油和帕瑪森起司做的，

but I'm fairly sure it could be prepared with olive oil instead.

不過我很確定可以改用橄欖油來做。

Oh, that would be lovely! Would it be possible to skip the cheese too?

喔，那太好了！起司也可以不加嗎？

Absolutely. I'll have a word with the chef to make sure.

沒問題。我去跟主廚說一聲，確保沒問題。

And the chips — are they cooked in the same oil as the meat?

還有薯條——是和肉用同一鍋油炸的嗎？

Seriously? Does that really matter?

真的假的？這有那麼重要嗎？

Hmm, I'm afraid I'm not certain. I'll check rather than guess.

嗯，恐怕我不太確定。我去問清楚，不亂猜。

Wow! I've never heard anyone ask that many questions.

哇！我從沒聽過有人問這麼多問題。

Ha! Well, if you don't ask, you don't get.

哈！不開口問，怎麼會有好事。

Right, good news! The chips are fried separately.

好消息！薯條是分開炸的。

And the chef has offered to make you a dish that isn't on the menu.

而且主廚願意特別為您做一道菜單上沒有的菜。

Really? That's incredibly kind of him!

真的嗎？他人也太好了吧！

Grilled vegetables with a herb sauce, and the risotto on the side.

香草醬烤蔬菜，搭配燉飯。

Ugh, that looks better than my steak!

唉，看起來比我的牛排還好吃！

Sorry, Dan, but you're not getting any!

抱歉啦，Dan，你一口都別想吃！

Thank you so much. You've really made my evening.

太感謝了。你真的讓我今晚很開心。

Fine, fine. Next time, you choose the restaurant!

好啦好啦。下次換你挑餐廳！
