ARTICLE
The Slow Return of the Family Meal

Ten years ago researchers expected the shared evening meal to disappear. Longer working hours and food delivery seemed certain to finish it off. The latest survey tells a different story: the number of families eating together at least four nights a week has risen slightly.

The reason is not a new love of cooking. It is cost. When two adults and two children each order separately, the bill is three times the cost of one pot of rice and vegetables.

Something unexpected followed. Parents in the survey reported fewer arguments with teenagers — not because the food was better, but because nobody leaves the table quickly when the meal is hot.

全文中譯

十年前研究者預期共進晚餐會消失。更長的工時與外送似乎注定終結它。最新調查說了不同的故事:每週至少四晚一起吃飯的家庭數量略有上升。

原因不是重新愛上烹飪,而是花費。當兩個大人和兩個小孩各自點餐,帳單是一鍋飯菜的三倍。

接著出現了意想不到的事。調查中的父母表示與青少年的爭執減少了——不是因為食物變好吃,而是因為飯菜熱騰騰時沒有人會很快離席。

林先生您好:

我想預訂三月十四日(週五)晚上七點十二人的桌位,為我母親慶祝七十歲生日。

其中兩位客人不吃肉,一位完全不能吃堅果。廚房能否從同一份菜單為他們準備餐點,還是我們應該改選套餐?

我們也想帶蛋糕。這是否要收費?能否幫我們冷藏到我們需要時再拿出來?

請告知需要多少訂金。

謹此
楊葛蕾絲
