173
man.
174
Everyone knows their place, okay?
175
Nothing's getting wasted.
176
This is fresh.
177
The veg is actually flavouring the dish with a bit of soy sauce, but it's all subtle and it's lovely.
178
Whoa, what do you think you're doing?
179
Seb, then you.
180
Whoa, I ain't done either, bruv.
181

203
And then lastly, the cod.
204
I can't believe the amount of food that we've got right now.
205
We have the steak.
206
I was a bit concerned about how long it was on the grill.
207
I said medium, but...
208
You'd say medium well.
209
I'd say medium well.
210
Yeah, I agree.
211
It melts in your mouth.
212
I did not expect that.
213
I'm surprised with how soft and juicy this is.
214
It's not flavoured with anything.
215
It's just the pure quality of meat.
216
Coming through with the flame grill.
217
That is it.
218
You go to South America, you ain't getting no sauces.
219
You ain't getting no parsley, anything like that.
220
A good steak is solely based off the grill and its salt.
221
We have the glazed, braised beef.
222
The shine on this bad boy.
223
Oh, come to daddy.
224
Oh, my.
225
That sauce, mate.
226
I like that.
227
Jerk chicken with the little pineapple pieces.
228
Oh, I like the pineapple.
229
I'm not really getting any spice.
230
I'd appreciate a scotch bonnet on it scallop time here we go whoa i think well i don't know i like that's delicious that's different the spice squash i feel like i'm eating a pumpkin frappuccino right now i don't like this one it's because i don't like squash onto the roast dinner gotta start with a roasty the gravy here this is gonna sound like the most biggest diss ever but i mean it as a compliment this is like kfc gravy bro that is liquid gold right there that is nectar of the gods but i don't like the potato i just want them to be crunchy i really appreciate the rosemary on there and the salt but i need more crunch the dry aged beef i've said this a million times the quality of the beef is exceptional you're not going to your local car and getting a dry aged beef i don't think so just going back to the steak that we just ate a minute ago i could just go up there right now and get five more fillets in it i'm not gonna but i could the time has come for dessert i cannot wait for this there is so much option this has to be tried that looks crazy the raspberries just fallen off that was my fault they've got their own cookies oh i love this i need to get this fruit salad if you just want to be healthy but that ain't today homemade marshmallows that you literally just dunk yourself and then the fudge brownie as well oh my this is ridiculous there aren't words we're coming back for an ice cream right so we've got the homemade cookie oh oh a raspberry chocolate in the middle wow i did not expect that to be this good They nail it.
231
That took a bath in some syrup for a couple of hours at least.
232
Creme brulee, my favourite dessert of all.
233
I'm going to be getting another one of them.
234
I'll tell you that.
235
Right, raspberry tart.
236
Excited for this one.
237
I wanted it to be a bit more crunchy at the bottom, like a crunchy, biscuity base.
238
But this one caught my eye, and I think I would.
239
If I had to just choose one right now, I would have ended on this.
240
Chocolate strawberries.
241
In London, everyone's paying like £10 for these things.
242
Come here, you can get as many as you want.
243
Damn.
244
I'm off to get some.
245
Damn, they're good.
246
Get a load of them.
247
Homemade pink marshmallow and white.
248
Yeah, you're right.
249
That, mate, is a cushion.
250
I might put that there and have a little nap.
251
The cameraman had this off camera and was saying, damn, that might be the best marshmallow I've ever had in my life.
252
And I think I have to agree with him.
253
I think the highlight of this meal is the dessert section.
254
You know what I've realized?
255
I should have just titled this video the 10,000 calorie challenge because at this point, I'm going up again.
256
I'm getting an ice cream.
257
I'm definitely getting more chocolate strawberries.
258
Thank you so much.
259
Cheers.
260
Thanks.
261
We're like a little kid.
262
I got the cone to make it cute for the video, but it's just not going to work.
263
It's already dripping.
264
I can't even do it.
265
I can't.
266
I can't do this.
267
I'm sorry, guys.
268
I tried to be cute for the video, but it just ain't working.
269
Also, much prefer that.
270
Wow.
271
So much, bro.
272
So we've come on a weekday and it's £65, but if you come on the weekend when it's the extras of the lobster, the beef wellington, it's £82.
273
That's not including drink, by the way, for both of these.
274
But I honestly think it's worth it.
275
I know it's a lot for a buffet, but the quality and the amount you can get, I think it's really worth it.
276
Thank you so much for watching.
277
I don't even know the script now.
278
What is it?
279
Thank you so much for watching.
280
See you later.
281
Peace.
282
See you next week.
283
Oh, see you next week.
284
Okay.
285
Thank you so much for watching.
286
See you next week.
287
Peace.

Guida Passo-passo per il Shadowing

Affrontare la difficoltà di questo video richiede una strategia di shadow speech efficace. Ecco come procedere:

  1. Ascolta attentamente: Guarda il video e ascolta attentamente il modo in cui il narratore parla. Nota l'intonazione e il ritmo.
  2. Ripeti in simultanea: Utilizza la tecnica del shadowspeak per ripetere le frasi subito dopo averle ascoltate. Questo ti aiuterà a migliorare la tua pronuncia inglese.
  3. Pausa e analizza: Fai delle pause dopo frasi chiave o difficili e cerca di capire il significato di parole ed espressioni nuove.
  4. Pratica regolarmente: Ripeti questo esercizio più volte, cercando di imitare non solo le parole, ma anche i toni e le emozioni del narratore.
  5. Applicare in contesti reali: Usa le frasi apprese nelle conversazioni quotidiane per rendere la tua pratica più autentica.

Utilizzando queste tecniche, non solo potrai migliorare la pronuncia inglese, ma anche acquisire fiducia nel parlato, rendendo l'apprendimento dell'inglese un'esperienza più coinvolgente e divertente.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
