Con pochi dollari si può mangiare nei vari fast food o nei take-away, locali che preparano piatti da asporto di vario tipo, dalla pizza ai menù vegetariani, ai piatti della cucina cinese, malese, greca ecc. I costi variano tra i 3-5 dollari di un pasto economico, i 7-15 dollari di un ristorante di medio livello e i 20 $ e oltre di un ristorante di livello medio-alto. Comodi i smorgasboard, specie di ristoranri self service dove, con una spesa di circa 10 dollari paghi tutto quello che riesci a mangiare.

penso che non si riesce a tradurre e che rimane idem.

(non lo trovo in nessuno dei miei diz. stampati e neanche in altri 3 ottimi on line - Sembra anche introvabile in un glossario on line)

tuttavia si trovano tanti siti dove è usato il termine in testi in inglese.... e non è usato soltanto x il settore alberghiero/cucina... ma anche in altri tecn. o informatica e altri.

ANTIPASTO
Literally, "before the pasta", and usually refers to the first course in a dinner. Often made of vegetables, cheeses, seafoods and prepared meats, this service is limited only by your imagination. Can be thought of in terms of a small appetizer buffet or type of smorgasboard.
