Famously, the Chinese love to eat! Discussing food and eating out is the national past time of Chinese people. Even a common greeting: "你吃了吗? (Nǐ chīle ma?) Have you eaten yet?" revolves around food. You can read more about this food-related greeting here: https://goo.gl/geQYvW

Today, Teacher Joyce show you how to direct a taxi to a restaurant. 
When taking a taxi, learn how to express where you want to go in Chinese. Teacher Joyce will show you the pronunciation of those words or phrases in the sentence and practice them one by one.

The driver may ask:

Nǐ qù nǎ?
你去哪?
Where do you go? 

You can answer:

Wǒ qù cān tīng.
我去餐厅.
I go to a restaurant.
