When you eat out with friends, it can be difficult to decide what to order, for there are often too many choices on the menu, and everything sounds good.

Luckily, a group of authors have recently written some books to help people solve this problem. Here are some of their tips about ordering food.

First, take a quick look at the menu and order what catches your eye first. Spend no more than 2-3 seconds deciding. Second, the key to ordering a good meal in a restaurant is understanding what the cooks are good at. Third, ask the waiters what they recommend and order something else – they always try to let you order expensive dishes and make money! Then ,take the menu and divide it into 4 or 5 pieces. Order from only one of the pieces, and don’t look at the other pieces. You will be happier with your meal. At last, ask the other customers at the restaurant about what they’re having and order the most popular dishes for yourself.
