　　A: What did you cook? 你做了什么好吃的？
B: Well, as you know I was in Thailand last month, and I took a cooking class! So I prepared some of my favorite dishes. 嗯，你知道的我上个月在泰国，我在那儿上了烹饪课！因此我准备了一些我喜欢的菜。
A: Great idea! As long as I don't get food poisoning! So what is on the menu tonight? 好主意！只要我不会食物中毒就好！那么今晚的菜单都有什么？
B: Ok, for starters we have Tom Yam soup. It's a bit spicy¹, but really good! 好的，第一道是泰式酸辣汤。有点麻辣，但是会很好喝！
A: This is delicious! The ginger² and lemongrass really gives it a nice taste! 美味啊！生姜和柠檬草让汤很鲜美的。

B: Ok, now for the last and best dish in my opinion. This is called Pad Thai. It's stir-fried noodles with eggs, fish sauce, tamarind juice, red chili⁴ pepper plus bean sprouts⁵, shrimp⁶ and tofu and garnished⁷ with crushed peanuts and coriander. It's practically Thailand's national dish! 好的，下面是最后一个我觉得最好的菜。叫做泰式炒河粉。它是把面条和鸡蛋，鱼酱，红辣椒和豆芽菜混在一起炒。
