When work (is) the busiest, the company would work overtime, me and (my) coworkers also love to order delivery food in the office. Today (the person who) ordered delivery food is Manager Zhou, (it was) beef noodles and lamb dumplings (that) he ordered for us. This month, this “jia” (of) restaurant we ordered twice (from).

在网上叫外卖
你知道吗？现在大家可以在网上叫外卖了。叫外卖特别简单。网站上有每家饭馆的菜单。菜单上有每道菜名字和价格。在网上点了菜以后，饭馆会很快让服务员给你送外卖。
以前，我每天自己做饭，有时候也出去吃。上个月，我第一次在网上叫外卖。我点了两道菜。菜送的特别快，也特别好吃！现在，我每周都会叫外卖。这个星期我叫了四次，因为我生病了，身体特别不舒服，不想自己做饭。
工作最忙的时候，公司会加班，我和同事在办公室也爱叫外卖。今天点外卖的是周经理，他给我们点的是牛肉面和羊肉饺子。这个月，这家饭馆我们点了两次了。他们的面和饺子都很特别，因为是他们自己做的，不是在商店买的，特别好吃。等了三十分钟以后，外卖到了。这顿饭我们吃了二十分钟，大家都吃得很快，因为吃了还要回办公室工作。
