Text: The Menu

The structure of the menu:

The classical French menu has more than twelve courses. Modern menus usually have two or three courses: Appetizers or snacks;

Soups;

Entrees;

Main courses;

 Desserts.

Many restaurants call the first three courses «starters».

Appetizers can be hors-d’oeuvres, pates, or natural oysters. These dishes are usually cold. They stimulate the appetite and are served at the beginning of the meal.

Soups may be thick potage or thin consomme. Soups are usually served hot, but can be served cold.

The entree in the classical French menu is a course served between the fish and the main meat courses. In the modern menu it can be seafood dishes, salads, small fried sausages or fish.

The main course is the most substantial course of the meal. Guests usually choose their main courses first and then select other courses. When chefs design menus, they usually start with the main course and then plan the other courses.

Dessert is the sweet course at the end of a meal or before coffee. In Britain it can be fruit and nuts, or a pudding. Coffee can be served with chocolates, biscuits or fruits. The most popular dessert is ice cream.

Text: The Menu

The word menu means:

- a list of dishes served in this restaurant;

- The list of dishes and vines with prices. Sometimes it is called bill of fare. It is usually printed in the form of a card and each guest receives a copy of the menu. In popular fast food restaurants there are one or two big menus on blackboards.

The types of menus:

There are four basic types of menus:

 1. a la carte menu (“according to the card”) – allows the customer to choose the number and type of dishes. It has a list of all the dishes, arranged in courses and each dish has its price. The dishes are “cooked to order”, so the guests must wait a little until the dish is ready, and then the dish is served to the guests.

2. table d’hote menu (“host’s table”) – offers a limited choice of dishes. Three or four dishes are offered in each course and the guest pays a fixed price for the whole menu. It uses in “business lunch”.

 3. carte du jour (“card of the day”) – the dishes are served on this day only.

4. cycle menu – it is a group of menus, which are repeated in a certain cycle. It usually uses in hospitals, on airlines and in work canteens. The dishes in the main course are new every day.
