For our lunch meeting with the investors, do we have to make a reservation at the restaurant or do we just show up? 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 12. Will that suit your schedule? I've arranged to meet them at the restaurant at 12. Can you make the reservation a little earlier? If we start earlier, it will give us more time for a longer lunch. Are you planning on treating the investors to a full-course meal? 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. That'll be pretty heavy for a mid-day meal, don't you think? As long as we stay away from anything alcoholic, we should be okay. With your prime rib and chicken choices, you'd better hope nobody's a vegetarian. We can make some special arrangements if we need to. After all, it's the company who is footing the bill.

  我们中午要和投资方见面，需要向饭店预定位置吗?还是直接过去？ 一般中午饭，我们不需要提前预定位子，他们应该能够接纳未预约的客人。但是为了保险起见，我去预定12点半商务一桌。这和你的时间安排不冲突吧？ 我已经安排与他们12点在饭店见面，你能把预约的时间再稍微提前一点吗？如果我们早点开始的话，我们就可以留出更多的时间吃午饭. 你打算请投资方吃一顿丰盛的午餐吗？ 是的，我们先上些开胃甜品，接着是汤和沙拉，然后主菜是上等的排骨或一流厨师烧的鸡，最后是各种美味的餐后甜点。 这样的午餐会不会太腻了？ 只要我们不喝酒，应该没有问题。 有了上等的排骨和鸡肉，你最好希望大家都不是素食者。 如果有必要我们可以个别再安排，毕竟是公司买单。 单词总结： Reservation 预定 We have made reservations for three rooms at the hotel. 我们已在这个旅馆预订了三个房间.Investor 投资者 Suit 适合 Would Friday morning suit you? 星期五早上对你合适吗?
