    周日我们一家去了不远的一个餐厅 Zhōu rì wǒ men yī jiā qù le bù yuǎn de yī gè cān tīng On Sunday, my family and I went to a nearby restaurant   这个餐厅很有特色 Zhè ge cān tīng hěn yǒu tè sè This restaurant has very distinctive features   位于一个风景优美的景区里 Wèi yú yī gè fēng jǐng yōu měi de jǐng qū lǐ It is located in a scenic area with beautiful scenery   面积比较大 Miàn jī bǐ jiào dà It has a relatively large area   靠着一个小湖 Kào zhe yī gè xiǎo hú It is next to a small lake   可以选择靠近湖边的餐桌吃饭 Kě yǐ xuǎn zé kào jìn hú biān de cān zhuō chī fàn You can choose a dining table near the lake to eat   吃完饭还可以在这里喝下午茶 Chī wán fàn hái kě yǐ zài zhè lǐ hē xià wǔ chá After dinner, you can also have afternoon tea here   坐在小亭子里休息 Zuò zài xiǎo tíng zǐ lǐ xiū xi Sit in a small pavilion  to rest   我们就是在这里休闲了一下午 Wǒ men jiù shì zài zhè lǐ xiū xián le yī xià wǔ We spent the whole afternoon relaxing here   孩子们玩耍 Hái zi men wán shuǎ The children played   大人聊天打扑克 Dà rén liáo tiān dǎ pū kè The adults chatted and played poker   我们好久没有打扑克了 Wǒ men hǎo jiǔ méi yǒu dǎ pū kè le We haven't played poker in a long time   这让我回想起了生孩子之前的一些时光 Zhè ràng wǒ huí xiǎng qǐ le shēng hái zi zhī qián de yī xiē shí guāng This reminded me of the time before I had children   这里的消费比较高 Zhè lǐ de xiāo fèi bǐ jiào gāo The consumption here is relatively high   所以我晚饭点的都是不太贵的菜 Suǒ yǐ wǒ wǎn fàn diǎn de dōu shì bù tài guì de cài So for dinner, I ordered dishes that were not too expensive   当然，它的溢价就来自于你享用的优美环境 Dāng rán, tā de yì jià jiù lái zì yú nǐ xiǎng yòng de yōu měi huán jìng Of course, its price p’remium comes from the beautiful environment you enjoy   我们现在会越发发现 Wǒ men xiàn zài huì yuè fā fā xiàn We are now increasingly finding that   在外面的餐厅吃饭不太健康 Zài wài miàn de cān tīng chī fàn bù tài jiàn kāng Eating in external restaurants is not very healthy   他们用的油不好 Tā men yòng de yóu bù hǎo The oil they use is of poor quality   而且重油重盐 Ér qiě zhòng yóu zhòng yán Moreover, they use excessive oil and salt   也就是说油和盐都放得很多 Yě jiù shì shuō yóu hé yán dōu fàng de hěn duō In other words, they add a lot of oil and salt   吃的时候味道很好 Chī de shí hou wèi dào hěn hǎo The taste is very good when eating   吃多了油腻 Chī duō le yóu nì But eating too much makes you feel greasy   吃完了口渴 Chī wán le kǒu kě And you feel thirsty after eating   反观自己家里做的饭菜 Fǎn guān zì jǐ jiā lǐ zuò de fàn cài On the other hand, the meals cooked at home   虽比不上外面的味美 Suī bǐ bù shàng wài miàn de wèi měi Although they are not as delicious as those outside   但清淡健康 Dàn qīng dàn jiàn kāng They are light and healthy   用的食材和调料都是精挑细选的 Yòng de shí cái hé tiáo liào dōu shì jīng tiāo xì xuǎn de The ingredients and seasonings used are carefully selected   所以我们更喜欢在家做饭吃 Suǒ yǐ wǒ men gèng xǐ huan zài jiā zuò fàn chī Therefore, we prefer to cook and eat at home
