  • Hello and welcome to Six Minute English, I'm Neil.

  • Yeah, and I'm Rob.

  • Now, Rob, you look like you enjoy a good meal.

  • Well, I do like eating out, and I like to think I know a good meal when I have one.

  • Well, that should give you an advantage with today's quiz.

  • In 2016, which is the last year, we have statistics for,

  • how many restaurants and mobile food services were there in the UK?

  • Was it A, about 75,000?

  • B, about 83,000, or C, about 93,000?

  • Well, I know there are lots, so I'm going to say 93,000, but that is just a guess.

  • I'll reveal the answer a little later in the program.

  • Today, we're talking about being a foodie.

  • Rob, what is a foodie?

  • Well, I would describe a foodie as someone who has a strong interest in food.

  • They like preparing it as well as eating it.

  • They like using good ingredients, and they're probably not fans of fast food.

  • Angela Hartnett is one of Britain's top chefs.

  • In the BBC podcast The Bottom Line, she talked about this topic.
