Paragraph: A Meal in a Restaurant
Write a paragraph about a meal you ate in a restaurant. What did you have to eat? How did you enjoy it? What kind of restaurant was it? Was the restaurant elegant and fancy, or was it plain and simple?
On New Year’s Eve we went out to eat at Chili’s. Chili’s is a mid-level, casual dining restaurant – it isn’t a fancy restaurant where people have to get dressed up, but neither is it a fast food place. This restaurant focuses on a “Tex-Mex” (Texan-Mexican) cuisine. Many of the flavorings of their dishes come from hot peppers, giving the restaurant its name.
The first thing that we had was an appetizer called an onion “blossom.” It is an onion that is cut to resemble a flower with its petals wide open. The onion is dipped into a batter and then deep-fried. The individual “petals” of the onion flower look like French fries, and can be dipped in a sauce that comes with the appetizer.
After the appetizer, we had our main meal. I ordered a grilled chicken breast, and my husband ordered steak. Hannah ordered chicken strips, as she usually does. We both enjoyed our dinner, but the steak seemed a little on the small side. I thought about having some dessert, but after finishing the meal I was full.
