V- Reading and Comprehension. Read the following article.
Typical shopping center food court vendor layout
at Centre Eaton in Montreal.
A food court is generally an indoor plaza
or common area within a facility that is
contiguous with the counters of multiple food
vendors and provides a common area for self-
serve dining.
Food courts may be found in shopping malls,
airports, and parks. In various regions (such as
Asia, America and Africa), it may be a
standalone development. In some places of
learning such as high schools and universities,
food courts have also come to replace or
complement traditional cafeterias.
Food courts consist of a number of vendors at food stalls or service

counters. You can order a meal and carry it from the vendors to a

common dining area. People also order their food to take out to eat it

at home, at work or at any other place. Food courts may also have

shops which sell prepared meals for consumers to take home and

reheat, making the food court a daily stop for some. People usually eat

their food with plastic cutlery, and sporks. Typical North American World Heritage Site.

and European food courts have mostly fast food chains such as

McDonald’s and Sbarro, with perhaps a few small private vendors.

Cuisines and choices are varied, with larger food courts offering more

global choices. Asian and African food courts are mostly private Sporks Takeout food

vendors that offer local cuisine. In Singapore, food courts and hawker

centers are the people’s main eating choice when eating out.
