You're sort of taking a little bit of each entree.

So family style, regardless of often Italian places, people will do this to just order several items and share.

Yeah.

I agree.

You taste everything and you don't feel like you have to finish your entree.

Yeah.

So that's a server is taking care of your table, bringing you everything that you would need.

Upscale is an adjective we use to describe these fancier restaurants.

We'll say it's upscale or elegant, we mentioned.

Mm-hmm.

Another interesting, it's a French word we use, prefix, which means a fixed price for a specific menu.

You'll be told, you know, the appetizer, entree, dessert, maybe drinks.

It's all a set menu that the chef has prepared for sort of a special occasion usually.

Restaurant week here does that where it's like a special event and they have a prefix menu.

You're paying a set price for a fixed menu.

Yeah.

So this at very fancy establishments, you'll have it's tapas really, right?

Where they're small plates that you're just getting a little bit of it to try and taste everything.

So similar to like tapas in Spain, a lot of places will have a tasting menu and you're ordering small plates just to be able to taste a lot of things on the menu.

And then you could order more of it if you choose.
