ALL YOU CAN EAT / FREE REFILLS 食べ放題 ／ おかわり自由
HOME>Word Master®>ALL YOU CAN EAT / FREE REFILLS 食べ放題 ／ おかわり自由
| Hello again! We'll be sharing one more meal with you before we say farewell until Monday. But today's meal may be enough to last you all weekend! |
If, for a fixed price, you can have as much food at a restaurant as you want, we say that the restaurant or the meal is all you can eat. We also sometimes use the expression all you can drink.
Another way of saying all you can drink is to say that there are free refills.
(Be careful: We do NOT use the English word "Viking" (a Scandinavian pirate) like the Japanese バイキング to mean all you can eat.)
決められた値段で食べたいだけ食べられる場合、そのレストランや食事のことを all you can eat （食べ放題）と呼びます。また、all you can drink （飲み放題）という表現もあります。
飲み放題の別の言い方として、free refills （おかわり自由）という表現もあります。
注意： 英語の Viking という言葉は、海賊のバイキングをさし、日本語のように食べ放題の意味では使われません。
