Canadian food vs Colombian food

MARIA ANTONIA

My favorite Canadian food is lobster. I think it is a very delicious sea food. It is the most famous food of Nova Scotia; I could have a lot of it, that was so good. I had never eaten lobster in Colombia but when I tasted it here I liked it instantly. The foods that I miss the most from Colombia are pandebono, green mango, soups, especially sancocho and ajiaco, and also empanadas. I have found it different that Canadian people don’t eat soups as much as we do. In general, I have found Canadian food really tasty.

The food here is very different from Colombian food. At breakfast I have some cereal and a toast. For lunch I usually eat ham and/or chicken sandwich. Then I get home after school and wait until supper is ready. Supper is the strongest meal of the day so there is always a very big variety of food. My mom is a very good cook. She likes Asian food very much so she cooks noodles.  Everything she makes is delicious. She has taught me how to make cookies.

My favorite Canadian food is peanut butter and fluff sandwich. I also love eating Dairy Queen ice cream with Maria. I ate lobster but I didn’t like it. Some Colombian foods I miss a lot are empanadas and arepas. In Canada supper time is very different from Colombia. Supper here is between 5:00 and 6:00 pm. As far as this goes I don’t see a big difference between Canadian and Colombian food.

I've missed Colombian food a lot. That’s why one day I decided to make plantain with hogao with my family. I was happy and they liked it. Here I have tasted lobster. It is delicious, especially lobster sandwich. I’m a tired of eating the same food every day; cereal at breakfast and sandwich at lunch. I miss our food, sancocho, fritanga and a big piece of juicy beef. I have also tasted a delicious chocolate drink at a place called Tim Hortons, it was white hot chocolate, it is delicious, I think that is what I'm going to miss the most from Canada.

MANUELA
I miss Colombian food. What I miss the most is meat, bread and desserts. I am tired of eating sandwiches every single day.

My family has invited me to different restaurants, one in Halifax named Montana and the other one here in Yarmouth. The new food that I have tasted is lobster sandwich, it’s delicious.

My experience with the food here was very good because my father Trent is a very good cook. He likes cooking different things such as: steak, corn, fish, salads, sandwiches, and other delicious dishes. My favorite food of was the pizza I ate my first day in Canada. On the second week I also liked  steak BBQ with salad and corn.

ANDREA The food was very good since the first moment. My host mom cooks very delicious food; I like everything. Every day supper is different and I like to try new Canadian food. During the first week I was hungry at night but then I wasn’t anymore.
