A：For our lunch meeting with the investors, do we have to make a reservation at the restaurant or do we just show up?

我們中午要和投資方見面，需要向飯店預定位置嗎?還是直接過去？

B：Usually for lunch, we don't have to reserve a table, they should allow walk-ins. But to be on the safe side, I'll order a table for half-past twelve. Will that suit your schedule?

一般中午飯，我們不需要提前預定位子，他們應該能夠接納未預約的客人。但是為了保險起見，我去預定12點半商務一桌。這和你的時間安排不沖突吧？

A：I've arranged to meet them at the restaurant at twelve. Can you make the reservation a little earlier? If we start earlier, it will give us more time for a longer lunch.

我已經安排與他們12點在飯店見面，你能把預約的時間再稍微提前一點嗎？如果我們早點開始的話，我們就可以留出更多的時間吃午飯.

B:Are you planning on treating the investors to a full-course meal?

你打算請投資方吃一頓豐盛的午餐嗎？

A:Yes, we'll start with appetizers, follow with a soup and salad course, then main dishes of prime rib or cordon bleu chicken, and finish up with a delicious rich dessert of some sort.

是的，我們先上些開胃甜品，接著是湯和沙拉，然后主菜是上等的排骨或一流廚師燒的雞，最后是各種美味的餐后甜點。

B:That'll be pretty heavy for a mid-day meal, don't you think?

這樣的午餐會不會太膩了？

A:As along as we stay away from anything alcoholic, we should be okay.

只要我們不喝酒，應該沒有問題。

B:With your prime rib and chicken choices, you'd better hope nobody's vegetarian.

有了上等的排骨和雞肉，你最好希望大家都不是素食者。

A:We can make some special arrangement if we need to. After all, it's the company who is footing the bill.

如果有必要我們可以個別再安排，畢竟是公司買單。
