The food critic really loves these foods. We can know that from:
I instantly became a big fan of Sichuan hot pots and I’ll soon be back for more! (L19–20)
It definitely hit the spot when I tried it, and it has become one of my personal favourites. (L34–35)
A single visit is not enough to appreciate everything, and I have a long list of dim sum I still need to try. (L50–51)
Discussion
2. What dish is popular in your hometown? Introduce it to a foreign traveller. Explain its popularity, history and features.
A Sample
The local dish I want to introduce is Yangzhou fried rice. It might be the most famous dish in my hometown, Yangzhou. It is generally believed that the dish dates back to the Sui Dynasty when leftover rice was cooked together with egg and chopped green onion. Over the centuries different ingredients have been added, like meat, to create different recipes. During the Beijing Olympic Games, Yangzhou fried rice was one of the most popular Chinese foods enjoyed by many athletes from different countries. It is now increasingly found on menus in Chinese restaurants all around the world.

Homework
Dear schoolmates,
Last week, our class organized a meaningful activity “Cooking a Dish for My Parents.” The aim was to express gratitude to our parents and strengthen family bonds through hands-on effort.
I chose to make scrambled eggs with tomatoes, a simple yet symbolic dish. After carefully washing and chopping the ingredients, I nervously heated the oil and stirred the eggs. Though I nearly burned them, my parents patiently guided me. Finally, the dish was served with their smiles as the best reward. This activity not only taught me to appreciate my parents' daily efforts, but made me realize the value of labor.
Thank you for listening!

Dear Chris,
I hope you’re doing well! I want to share a little cooking experiment I embarked on this past weekend.
My family had a gathering, and I decided to prepare a dish myself. After choosing a recipe online, I gathered the ingredients and started chopping vegetables and marinating the meat. Cooking was a bit of a challenge, especially getting the seasoning right, but it turned out delicious! Everyone loved it, which gave me a huge confidence boost. This experience taught me that with patience and effort, even complex tasks can become a source of pride and joy.
Looking forward to hearing from you soon about your latest adventures!
Yours,
Li Hua
Thank you
