Choosing a meal can be a problem sometimes because many dishes may have unknown foreign names. Don't guess - ask the waiter to specify them for you and to advise on the menu.
Don't let the number of knives, forks and spoons confuse you. It is simple enough - use them in the order in which they are laid.

"THE ENGLISH ARE HOT INTERESTED IN FOOD"
There are three foreign food centers in London: the Norwegian, the Icelandic and the German Food Centre. It was interesting to hear that all of these three countries had independently chosen London as the best place to start a new campaign to sell their food. Why should they have chosen London particularly? It is because here in Britain there is no standard of traditional excellence in cooking. Compared with food on the Continent, English food is already standardized, and, in general, rather dull and unimaginative. In a book of recipes I recently found the unkind description of the English way of cooking vegetables: "simply to boil them in salt water with little or no attempt to season them". But now many British housewives do not even find time to boil fresh vegetables. They are deserting their homes and kitchens to go out and become money-earners. Unlike the French housewife who has a special, French tradition to uphold, the English housewife is not ashamed to use frozen, canned or pre-cooked food " simply because it saves time.
So there is an enormous potential market here for we'll flavored prepared food, and foreign countries are beginning to exploit it. From their food centers, they are launching planned invasions of the British kitchen.
These food centers all seem to follow the same pattern. They each have a shop, where producers' goods are displayed and sold and a restaurant, where you can eat their special delicacies (you are served by natives who make you feel 31 that you are being given "the real thing").
It seems a pity that, in order to have well flavored food, Britain must spend money on imports. However, anything that helps to convince the English that their food is tasteless deserves every encouragement.

One of the most famous buildings in the world must be the Great Pyramid at Giza in Egypt. When you look at it, you realize that it must have been extremely difficult to build. Thousands of people must have worked on it. It’s enormous! Until the twentieth century it was the tallest building in the world. Building things now is quite easy. But it can’t have been easy for the Ancient Egyptians- they didn’t have electricity, or tractors, or lorries. So it must have taken a very long time to build, you’d think. But it didn’t- it only took thirty years!
