    DISCUSSION 
    What’s your favorite kind of restaurant?

    My favorite type of restaurant is Chinese food, because I like rice, spaghetti, meat
    and because it is also a variety of dishes that you can eat and it is very delicious.
    And also, another type of restaurant that I like is Mexican food because you eat all
    kind of food that is spicy or you eat traditional meals from the region that you didn`t
    even know yourself. And well, all this Mexican food leaves an irresistible flavor in
    your mouth that makes you provoke to eat more food.
