Speaker A: I love Italian cuisine. My favourite Italian dish is lasagne and I often cook it myself. I guess I’m very much like Garfield, an orange tabby cat, the main character of a comic strip, who is known for his love for the Italian dish. Italian cuisine is well-known for its use of pasta. It includes noodles in various lengths, widths and shapes. Pasta is usually served with sauce. There are hundreds of different shapes of pasta. Cheese and wine are a major part of the cuisine. Pizzas are today among the most recognizable meals in Italian cuisine. Coffee, especially espresso, is the most popular drink.
Speaker B: I prefer Japanese cuisine which includes such ingredients as rice, noodles, vegetables, seafood, meets, mushrooms, beans and so on. My friends and I often go to a Japanese restaurant which is situated not far from my house and we always order sushi. Doctors say that Japanese food is low in fat and high in salt. I think that this cuisine is healthy because it includes much seafood.
Speaker С: I’m a vegetarian and I don’t eat meat and some animal products. My food includes cereals, fruits, vegetables, nuts and some dairy products. This kind of diet helps me keep my body weight under control. It is good for treatment of certain diseases, such as heart disease. Besides, vegetarians help save a lot of animals.
Speaker D: I know it’s not very healthy to eat fast food but I like it so much! I adore hamburgers, cheeseburgers, apple pies, muffins and fruit cocktails. I know that fast food makes people fat and elevates risk for diabetes. Experts say that a regular meal at McDonald’s consisting of a Big Mac, large fries and a large Coca- Cola drink amounts to 1430 calories. Besides, there is a risk of food poisoning. But I can’t say ‘NO’ when my friends suggest going to McDonald’s.
Speaker E: I can’t say which cuisine is my favourite. Sometimes I go to Italian restaurants. Sometimes I prefer Indian cuisine… But most of all I enjoy my meal at home. My mother is a wonderful cook and her dinners are always delicious. She has the know-how to cook any dish and she collects recipes from different countries. So I always say: ‘Why go to the cafe if I have a personal chef at home?’
Speaker F: When I was in Paris last year I took to French cuisine. In summer salads and fruit dishes are popular because they are refreshing and inexpensive. At the end of summer mushrooms become plentiful and appear in stews throughout France. In autumn game of all kinds is eaten because the hunting season begins in September and runs through February. Shellfish are at their peak when winter turns to spring, and oysters appear in restaurants in large quantities.
