阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

  On Semngoon Road in Singapore,something interesting is happening:fast food with a difference.This street is surrounded by skyscrapers,modern shopping malls, and office buildings.It looks like a South Indian bazaar.It has Indian shops.In the Thosai cafe,food is served on banana leaves.And it also has an Indian vegetarian fast food restaurant called Komala's.This restaurant is becoming as popular as McDonold's.

  Komala's looks like an American fast food restaurant.It has plastic chairs and tables that are attached to the floor.There's also a children's playground in the restaurant.What makes it different is its menu,which is all Indian and vegetarian.

  It offers more choices of food than most fast food restaurants do.The menu is on the wall above the cashiers.The prices are low,and once the orders are taken and paid for,the customer is given a token to present to the food counter.The customer turns in the token picks up the food.

  The food is ready in about tow minutes.If It's for takeout,it is wrapped and put in a bag.If the customer eats in the restaurant,they eat from metal plates and cups,on a tray covered with paper This paper shows pictures of the food that is available at Komala's.

  The menu offers more than ten kinds of thosai,steamed buns,and many other types of Indian foods.These come accompanied by curries and chutneys.There are also mini-meals for children.Which include lassi,a sweetened yogurt drink,and ice-cream.

  On Sundays,a lot of Indian families come here for a vegetarian dinner after going to the nearby temple.Komala's is airconditioned,the seats are good,the service is very fast,and it's very neat and clean.This isn't true of other restaurants in the neighborhood.
