（二）美国人的用餐习惯

　　美国人吃饭用刀叉，而且他们的用餐方式是很有讲究的。

因此，在应邀与美国朋友一起吃饭时，应特别注意他们的用餐习惯。

一般情况下，餐桌上摆放有一幅餐刀和两幅餐叉，外边的餐叉供你吃色拉，里边的餐叉用于吃主食和其它点心食品，餐刀用来切肉食。

如果你两手并用，应左手握叉，右手握刀，而且一次握刀时间不能太长。

美国人的早餐有：

炒或煮鸡蛋、香肠、油炸土豆片、薄煎饼、果子冻、烤面包、松饼、桔子汁以及咖啡等。

　　生活在美国（三）美国人的主食

　　美国人吃午餐和吃晚餐之前通常要喝点鸡尾酒，但在加利福尼亚州，人们大都喝葡萄酒。

吃主食之前，一般都要吃一盘色拉。

炸磨茹和炸洋葱圈可作为开胃食品，牛排、猪排和鸡（腿）为主食，龙虾、贝壳类动物以及各种鱼类甚至包括淡水鱼被统称为海鲜。

炸土豆条是深受人们喜爱而且几乎成了必不可少的食物。

另外应特别注意的一点，如有吃剩的食物，一定要打包带回家，以免浪费。

　　生活在美国（四）美国用餐常识

　　中国菜着重色、香、味，西餐讲究实惠。

初到美国餐馆用餐，应该注意如下事项：

　　1）选择合适的餐馆（如：

家庭式餐馆、特色餐馆以及自助式餐馆等）;

　　2）餐馆营业时间（上午11：

30开门营业，直到夜晚）;

　　3）一般都应事先预订餐位：

　　4）到达餐馆后，不能径直地到餐桌旁入桌，除非餐厅有“随意就坐”的告示;

　　5）付款时，别忘了留给服务员一定比例的小费（一般为实际总额的10%～15%）。
