台南零顆星？
Anita and Louis are friends. They are chatting.
安妮塔和路易斯是朋友。他們正在聊天。
Anita: Did you see the 2025 Michelin Guide? Taipei, Taichung, and Kaohsiung got 53 stars in total.
安妮塔：你有看到2025米其林指南嗎？台北、台中和高雄加起來一共五十三顆星。
in total總共
Louis: Yeah, but Tainan got zero again. That’s four years straight.
路易斯：有啊，可是台南又零顆星。已經連四年了。
straight(adv.)連續地、一直地in a row連續
Anita: True, but 30 places in Tainan made the Bib Gourmand list. That’s still a big deal — good food, fair prices.
安妮塔：沒錯，但台南有三十家進了必比登推介。這也很厲害啊——食物好吃又划算。
Bib Gourmand物美價廉、值得推薦的餐廳make the list入選big deal了不起的事fair(adj.)合理的、公平的、天氣晴朗的
Louis: Sure, but most Tainan people don’t care. They already think their street food is the best in the world.
路易斯：是啦，不過台南人根本不在乎。他們早就覺得他們的小吃是全世界第一。
care(v.)在乎、關心street food vendor街頭小吃攤販
Anita: One place really stood out though — “Gyu Go Zou.” Remember? They once sold 14 slices of zucchini for 880 NT dollars!
安妮塔：不過有一家「牛五蔵」很特別。還記得嗎？他們曾經十四片櫛瓜要賣880元！
stand out傑出、突出stand out from從～中突出
Louis: Yeah, who even pays that much for zucchini? You could buy a whole farm with that money!
路易斯：對啊，誰會花那麼多錢買櫛瓜？那錢都快能買一整片田了！
Anita: Well, guess what — it made the Bib Gourmand list this year. Some people are shocked, but maybe it means Tainan’s moving toward fine dining.
安妮塔：對，你猜怎麼著，結果今年它還入選必比登推介。有人嚇到了，不過也許代表台南正在往精緻餐飲走。
fine dining精緻餐飲dining(n.)用餐、餐飲dine out外出用餐=eat out
Louis: Maybe, but I’d still rather spend 880 NT dollars eating beef soup, oyster omelets, and mango shaved ice all day long.
路易斯：有可能啦，但我寧願拿880元去喝牛肉湯、吃蚵仔煎、還有芒果冰，一整天都吃不停。
would rather寧願、寧可spend money V-ing花錢做某事
Anita: Fair point. Still, a Michelin star could bring more tourists, and that’s good for the city.
安妮塔：你說得沒錯。但要是有星星，也能吸引更多觀光客，對城市發展有幫助。
fair point觀點合理、中肯的建議tourist(n.)遊客
Louis: True, but honestly, Tainan doesn’t need Michelin. For me, the real stars are the little food stalls on every corner.
路易斯：沒錯，不過說真的，台南根本不需要米其林。對我來說，街角的小吃攤才是真正的星星。
honestly(adv.)老實說、坦白說stall(n.)攤位
