近几年，越来越多的中国人赴泰旅游。庞大的中国游客给泰国带来了大量机遇的同时也带来了更多的挑战，语言交流成为首要解决的问题。许多专家和学者编写了各式各样的汉语教材来让泰国人学习汉语，但对于泰国餐饮业的专业汉语教材研究目前还处于起步阶段。因此，笔者根据自己的亲身经历和感受，从泰国博仁大学周边餐馆入手，以泰国餐厅服务员与中国顾客为特定对象，通过调查问卷的方式收集信息，找出影响沟通的原因；结合分析目前泰国汉语教材的现状与不足，总结适合泰国餐饮汉语教材编写的研究，针对性地解决问题。本论文主要有四个部分组成。第一部分绪论概述了汉语教材研究的情况，以及选题的原因。第二部分主要是了解汉语在泰国的交流使用情况，以及博仁大学周边餐饮情况和整个泰国餐饮行业的现状和发展前景；第三部分主要是对调查文件的具体分析：泰国餐饮服务员使用中文和对中文学习态度的情况，以及中国顾客在泰国遇到交流障碍的情况；第四部分是论文的核心：餐饮业汉语研究及教材编写建议。该部分针对泰国现有汉语教材进行分析，发现教材中存在的一些问题，如餐饮行业的缺漏，课文选题局限等，从而提出了改进的建议。笔者希望通过该篇研究，能够为泰国餐饮行业汉语教材的开发、研究、探索，以及编写提供参考与帮助，从而提高泰国餐饮业服务员的汉语水平。
