Note

Ordering food is not a problem for foreigners at big restaurants because the waiters speak English and the menu is in English. But in small restaurants, it may be a difficult job. Some of them will provide you with the pictures of the dishes, but when they do not, an easiest way is to ask the restaurant to make recommendations of their own delicacies, or let them point to your phrasebook to tell you the ingredients of the dishes, and a third way is to point to what the others are eating. It is suggested that you ask for a detailed bill and keep the receipt.
