Food and Drinks (English Meals)

The Englishmen usually have four meals a day: breakfast, lunch, tea (5 o'clock) and dinner. Breakfast can be a full "English breakfast" of cornflakes with milk and sugar, or bacon and eggs, toast and marmalade, tea or coffee. Some people have just a cup of tea or coffee with a toast. This is usually called "continental breakfast". At midday everything is stopped for lunch. Most offices and small shops are closed for an hour and people visit cafes, coffee bars or restaurants for lunch. Factory workers usually eat in their canteens. The Englishmen like what they call "good plain food". They must know what they are eating. Usually they like steak, roast beef, Yorkshire pudding, fish and chips. Afternoon tea is at about 5 o'clock. It is a cup of tea with cakes or biscuits. Dinner is usually at 7 o'clock. The main course can be fish or meat (roast beef) with a lot of vegetables. The next course is something sweet, such as fruit pie. Last of all there may be cheese, often with biscuits. The English are fond of tea. They like to have "a nice cup of tea" six or eight times a day, sometimes even more.
