西餐這個(gè)詞是由它特定的地理位置所決定的?！拔鳌笔俏鞣降囊馑迹话阒笟W洲各國(guó)。"餐"就是飲食菜肴，我們通常所說(shuō)的西餐主要包括西歐*的飲食菜肴，當(dāng)然同時(shí)還包括東歐各國(guó)、地中海沿岸等國(guó)和一些拉丁美洲如墨西哥等國(guó)的菜肴。而東南亞各國(guó)的菜肴一般統(tǒng)稱(chēng)為東南亞菜，但也有獨(dú)為一種菜系的，如:印度菜。西餐一般以刀叉為餐具、以面包為主食，多以長(zhǎng)形桌臺(tái)為臺(tái)形。西餐的主要特點(diǎn)是主料突出，形色美觀，口味鮮美，營(yíng)養(yǎng)豐富，供應(yīng)方便等。那么，吃西餐的英語(yǔ)怎么說(shuō)呢？
