PART II. READING

Food around the world

Hamburgers in Beijing, tacos in Moscow, pizzas in Rio and Chinese food just everywhere food
is becoming more and more international these days. But does this mean that national dishes
are disappearing? Some of our readers give their opinions
1.

Miguel (Valencia, Spain)

In Valencia we have a famous dish called paella. Paella is famous all over Spain- people often
eat it for lunch on Sunday. But the real paella comes from Valencia! Paella is easy to make- you
just need rice, vegetables, chicken and seafood. And its delicious! Of course I eat hamburgers
and pizzas, but paella, especially my mothers paella, is still my favorite!
2.

Nitya (Calcutta, India)

There are a lot of Chinese, hamburger and pizza restaurants in Calcutta, and I often eat there
with my friends. But my favorite food is still curry and rice, or a special bread called nan.
Curry is very spicy and sometimes its very hot, but I love it! People in the USA and Britain eat a
lot o curry, too. It certainly isnt disappearing!

3.

Naomi (Melbourne, Australia)

Personally, I dont like eating in restaurants. In Australia we dont really have a national dish
but we love having barbecues (we call them barbies). Barbies are great fun- you can have
them in the yard or at the beach, and all your friends can come along. Theyre very easy, tooyou just need some meat and different sauces. My Dad makes delicious barbecued chicken. All
my friends love it. Long live barbies!
