EATING OUT The British have "imported" food from very different cultures, e.g. the Indian, the Chinese and the Italian. One reason for the popularity of these types of restaurant is that they are often much cheaper than the more traditional British ones which serve a mixture of British and French cooking. In the larger cities there is a great choice of restaurants. Good examples of this are the vegetarian restaurants which offer a different type of food. TAKE-AWAY FOOD Restaurants often have a take-away service in which you buy the food cooked and take it to eat elsewhere. The most common are Indian, Chinese and Italian pizza take-aways and there are also the American fast-food restaurants. The original British take-away food is fried fish and chips (fried potatoes) and there are still hundreds of fish and chip shops. SELF-SERVICE Another cheap way to eat out is to go to a self-service caf where you serve yourself from a counter and pay for your food before eating it. Many self-service restaurants now offer a good range of salads and hot meals. RESTAURANTS
