对话2：
凯特：这里真是吃饭的好地方。他们说这里有全美最正宗的加州风味。
托罗：是的。科布沙拉、香煎扇贝、还有卡尔墨西哥扒牛柳薯条是这家餐馆的热销菜。
凯特：好的。我们先点香煎扇贝吧。我认为你更喜欢墨西哥风味的吧。你现在习惯加州美食了吗？
托罗：没问题。许多年前，墨西哥移民把他们的传统美食也带到了加州。看，墨西哥卷、墨西哥豆泥，墨西哥三明治都是传统的墨西哥风味，在这里很常见的。

The cuisine of California加州特色菜
The modern cuisine of California is majorly influenced by French Nouvelle cuisine，Latin American cooking，Mediterranean culinary styles and Asian cuisine.
加州的现代烹饪主要受到法国新式烹饪、拉丁美洲烹饪、地中海烹饪风格和亚洲烹饪的影响。
Speaking of colonial Spanish roots and Mexican territorial past，California food also bears the culinary heritage of the Spanish colonizers，Mexican ranchers and Meso-Americans，which can be experienced in the form of burritos，carne asada fries，quesadillas，tostadas，menudo，chile relleno，Chipotle and enchiladas，to mention a few.
说到原西班牙殖民地和墨西哥分割出的地区，加州美食风格也受西班牙殖民者和墨西哥农场主和中美洲人的影响，形成有特色的食物，包括墨西哥玉米煎饼、墨西哥扒牛柳薯条、油炸玉米饼、脆玉米饼、墨西哥牛肚汤、填馅红辣椒、墨西哥辣椒卷、肉馅玉米卷饼等等。
Car restaurants，often called the drive-thru restaurants，form the legendary Southern California food culture，which are automobiles selling fast foods，burgers and sandwiches. Gourmet burgers are very popular in the state.
汽车快餐也称为免下车餐馆，形成独特的南部加州饮食文化，主要向车主们出售套餐、汉堡和三明治。美味的汉堡在加州很受欢迎。
Barbecued foods on the other hand have a special place in Californian cuisine，as the Mexicans used to cook beef in ranched pit barbecues during the 1840s. However，barbecued dishes in this state also imbibed the Southwestern American cooking styles of Oklahoma，Arizona，Texas and New Mexico.Pork baby back ribs，beef ribs，steaks and sausages are on the top in this category.
另一方面，烧烤在加州美食中也占有一席之地，据说墨西哥人早在19世纪40年代就喜欢在农场里烤牛肉。然而，加州的烧烤也融合美国南部一些地方的特色，如俄克拉荷马州、亚利桑那州、德克萨斯州和新墨西哥州。烧烤乳猪排、小牛排、牛排和香肠最受欢迎。

Leo：People say that Americans like nothing apart from"fast food"，especially the young people. Do you think this is true？And what do you think of fast food？
Sam：I don't have anything against it，really！It's OK！I mean，you hear people saying fast food are all junk food，but most of the time they taste good. Though I wouldn't want to live off fast food all the time！
