Greasy1 Spoon Feifei: You’re looking very pleased2 and contented3 today, Diarmuid. Diarmuid: I am very happy today Feifei. Why? Because I had4 my breakfast at my local5 greasy spoon this morning. Feifei: Greasy spoon? I don’t understand. How could6 you have breakfast at a greasy spoon? Diarmuid: A greasy spoon is a name for a café that serves8 cheap meals9. Feifei: I have seen10 lots of these kinds of cafés around Britain11 but I didn’t know they were called greasy spoons. Diarmuid: Yes, greasy spoons are very common12 in the UK. You can find them everywhere. Feifei: But why are they called greasy spoons? Diarmuid: People probably13 call these cafés greasy spoons because the food they serve7 there is nearly14 always fried15 food.I suppose16 it’s a kind of joke17. The fried food served18 in the café is so oily, or greasy, that even19 the spoons are greasy. Example A: Where shall20 we go for lunch? There’s a new health-food restaurant near here. B: I don’t really want to eat salad and vegetables. A: Ok, let’s go to the greasy spoon for a fry-up. B: Mmm, that sounds great. I’m going21 to have sausage and chips22. Feifei: You know, eating at a greasy spoon doesn’t sound very healthy to me. Diarmuid: I think you’re probably right there. You shouldn’t eat at a greasy spoon every day. Mmm, the problem23 is the food from a greasy spoon tastes good to me. Feifei: I know. Why does unhealthy24 food always taste so good? Diarmuid: That’s a question for another day Feifei.
