Unit 1"I' ll Just Borrow, Your Kitchen..."
These days you can eat just about anything in Tokyo. Chinese, French and Italiancuisine have been popular for many years, but now you can find Russian, Cuban,Brazilian, Egyptian and Thai; with so many restaurants to choose from, there's probablynothing you can't find if you look hard enough.
However, the situation facing Tokyo' s restaurants is far from rosy: with so manyrestaurants opening, competition is fierce, and restaurants often find it difficult tomeet the various demands of their customers.The result is that a great manyrestaurants open only to disappear once more just as quickly. Times are hard, but onechef, Tsuyoshi Kogure from Narashino City, Chiba Prefecture, has built up a solidreputation. He does not have a restaurant of his own: all that is needed is a telephonecall and Kogure, the traveling chef, will take off for any comer of the country. "Thefact that l have no restaurant allows me to provide the ideal catering service,"Kogurecomments about his unusual occupation.
Today, Kogure' s destination is a condominium in a residential area in Tokyo' s OtaWard. His client, Junko Ohashi, wishes to hold a memorial dinner to mark the firstanniversary of her husband's death at her own home with close friends, without beingtoo formal. Kogure arrives as usual driving his small station wagon, map in hand. 《新思维大学英语阅读教程》系泛读教程，旨在提高学生英语阅读能力，扩大词汇量，扩展知识面，培养英语思维，掌握基本阅读技巧。本教材可供大学一二年级的学生以及同等水平的读者使用。
