It’s become part of the restaurant table setting: knife, fork, napkin and cell phone.

　     Distracted (思想不集中的) dining is the new concern with customers constantly texting friends, uploading a Weibo photo of the meal they’re about to chew down or emailing the boss. For many smart-phone users, it’s hard just to focus on the meal and company at hand.

　     Now, one restaurant in Los Angeles is giving diners a reason to turn off the digital world, by offering customers willing to check (寄存) their phones at the door a 5-percent discount on their bill. Owner and chef Mark Gold of Eva Restaurant, located on Beverly Boulevard near N. Gardner Street, hopes this gives customers a way to truly sit back and relax, enjoy their meal and actually talk with friends and family in person.

　     “For us, it’s really not about people disturbing other guests. Eva is home, and we want to create that environment of home, and we want people to connect again,” he explained. “It’s about two people sitting together and just connecting, without the distraction of a phone, and we’re trying to create an atmosphere where you come in and really enjoy the experience and the food and the company.”

　     Gold said applying the suggestion reminds him to avoid cell phone usage, too. “I’m guilty of it as well. When my wife and I go to dinner it seems like the cell phone is part of the table setting now. Every table you look at, it’s a wine glass, the silverware and the cell phone,” he joked.

　     The husband and wife team runs Eva, a 40-person space with European flair. Gold said a little less than half take advantage of the deal, and no one has gotten upset about it.

　     “I think once the server approaches the table and they’re presented with the offer, they like the idea of actually talking to each other again,” he said.

Wondering how many calories the banana cream pie on your plate has? Some Japanese have a novel way to fid out: Photograph it with a cellphone and send the image to an expert．With cellphones becoming common in Japan and rising concern over expanding waistlines, health-care providers will allow the calorie-conscious people to send photos of their meals to nutritionists for advice．　　

    Public health insurance offices in Osaka in Western Japan have launched the service on a trial basis．About 100 cardiac patients signed up in the first year, followed by diabetes and obesity patients in the second．“Japanese have been getting fatter, especially men in their 20s and 30s． There is concern over what they learned about nutrition when they were younger,”the Osaka official, Satomi Onishi, said．“We’re hoping that this program can help us deal with the problem．”　　

    Osaka is using a system developed by Asahi Kasei Corp．The system is operating among about 150 health-care providers and local governments around the country Nutritionists can work with photos from one day’s meals to several weeks’ worth． Results come back in three days． People can also log on a website to get further information．　　

    Dr Yutaka Kimura has developed a similar system at Kansai Medical University’s Hirakata Hospital, also in Osaka． Five patients have taken part in the programme, which costs $37 to join and $21 per month．Patients photograph meals over the course of three to seven days, and a nutritionist e-mails advice to them．“Patients used to fill in meal logs, but people tend to forget things or underestimate their portions,” Kimura said．“Photographing meals and e-mailing them can be easier and get more accurate results．”　　

As Japanese have turned to bigger portions and more meat and fried foods, obesity and related illnesses such as high blood pressure have become a rising concern． The Health Ministry estimated last year that more than half of Japanese men and about one in five women between 40 and 70 years old were at the increased risk of heart disease, type II diabetes and other diseases because of obesity． With the Health Ministry hoping to see a 25% reduction in the number of people at the risk of these diseases by 2015, Osaka officials hope the cellphone program will help．
