Try to describe it using adjectives; such as spicy, salty,etc. ( and ingredients for example) My favorite food is Lasagna, it is an Italian plate, that uses noodles, tomato sauce, beef. It is a little bit spicy, and some people may find it salty as well. Most people do not know it by its name, however it is known for being Garfields favorite dish. It has a little bit of sweet flavor, because of the basil and sugar you use on the tomato sauce, also it is a rich food, talking about nutritional terms, because it has every nutrient we need in order to survive.

2. Mention three food items you do not like:

Fish, Celery and Soy milk. 3. Talk about a diet you know. The dukan Diet, it is a diet consisting of hyperproteinemia, during the 2 weeks of the initial phase, all you may eat is just protein and nothing of carbohydrates or lipids. 4. Which is your favorite restaurant, pub? Why? My favorite restaurant is A Pinch of Pancho, its right here in Providencia and its speciality is American food. Its my favorite because of the environment, it is so quiet there that you can eat in peace, the plates sizes are not so big nor so small, they just leave you perfect for a dessert and a coffee later, the food inthere is cooked in such a nice way that you can not complain whether its is too spicy or too sweet or even raw (for the meat). 5. Do you leave tips in restaurants, bars, pubs? Why? Why not? It depends on the level of service it has been given, if Im not served well I may leave no tip, or just the minimum (which for me is 5%), but if the service is just regular, I may just leave 10%. 6. Look at the menu and describe your ideal one .Could include starter, main course and dessert. 7. Describe your ideal menu for the weekend. 8.
