Dear Jane,
How are you doing these days? Last weekend, my cousin visited us, and we took him to have Beijing roast duck-one of the most famous traditional foods in my hometown.
When we sat down in a nice restaurant, a waiter came up to take the order. He told us that people use wood fire to roast the duck in a big oven. The wood fire makes the duck smell nice and taste special. After some time, the duck came to our table. It looked golden and beautiful. Then my father showed my cousin how to eat it. He put some duck meat, duck skin, cucumber, spring onion and sweet sauce on a small pancake, rolled it up and gave it to him. My cousin tasted it and couldn't stop smiling. He enjoyed it so much that he rolled two more pancakes, one for himself and the other for me.
I hope you can visit China one day. I will take you to eat Beijing roast duck too! I'm sure you'll love it.

Dear Lisa,
How are you doing these days? Last weekend, my best friend came to visit me in Chongqing, and I took her to have Chongqing hot pot—one of the most famous traditional foods in my hometown.
When we sat down in a busy hot pot restaurant, a waiter came up to take the order. He told us that people boil a pot of spicy soup with many hot spices, oil and Sichuan pepper to make the soup taste special and fragrant. After some time, the hot pot came to our table. The red soup was bubbling, and it smelled so good that my friend couldn’t wait to cook the food. Then I showed her how to eat it. I put thin slices of beef, fresh vegetables and tofu into the boiling soup, waited for them to cook for a few minutes, and then took them out with chopsticks. My friend tasted the beef first and couldn’t stop smiling. She enjoyed it so much that she kept cooking more ingredients for herself and me.
Hot pot is not just a delicious food, but also a fun way to share a meal with friends and family. I hope you can visit Chongqing one day. I will take you to eat Chongqing hot pot too! I’m sure you’ll love it.
Take care,
Li Hua
