Explanation:

"The All-American Slurp" is a short story written by Lensey Namioka. It talks about a family which immigrated to a new country and the embarrassing situations they faced.

"Lakeview" was an expensive restaurant. It wasn't common for the family to eat in such places in America, other than Chinese restaurants. The details were needed in order to illustrate the narrator's difficulties in adapting to American Culture. They tried to adapt, but it was difficult for them.

For example, the family didn't know much about what was listed on the menu because they were all written in French. Another example was the difficulty they encountered in eating the soup. They were loud enough to make sounds of "Shloop" (slurp), which is a way of showing appreciation in China. However, it wasn't the same in America. Slurping is considered rude.

So, this explains the answer.
