Keep it on your phone →米娅在九点前走进了一家小餐馆。餐厅里几乎空无一人。一位系着白围裙、眼神疲惫的服务员指了指角落的一张桌子。
“就一个人吗?”他问。米娅点了点头。她总是一个人旅行,每次用新的语言点餐时总有点紧张。菜单是一张手写的纸。
她指着一个她不懂的词。服务员第一次微笑了。“这是今天的特色菜,”他用缓慢的英语说道。“我奶奶的食谱。试试吧。如果你不喜欢,我给你换别的。”
食物盛在一个沉重的陶碗里,热腾腾的,蒜香扑鼻,里面有许多小块面包。米娅小心地尝了一口,然后抬起头。服务员站在吧台后,双臂交叉,看着她。
她给了他一个竖起大拇指的手势。他笑了,走过来给她的杯子续满。“很好,”他说。“明天你再来,我告诉你里面有什么。”
