An Italian Restaurant



I went to an Italian restaurant which was called Bella Napoli and located on the second floor of Deji Square in Xinjiekou on the 7th of March. I had lunch with two of my friends. We took part in foreign language festival and went to the restaurant together. We chose that restaurant because one of my friends introduced this restaurant to us and he told us that the dishes in the restaurant are very tasty. He had been to this restaurant many times before.
We arrived at about 11:30 and we felt a little hungry. However, when we saw the menu and the price of the dishes, we did not feel hungry anymore because of the expensive price. I just ordered a plate of spaghetti and an ice cream, but that cost me 118 RMB. Isn’t that amazing?
Generally, the spaghetti tasted very delicious and I really liked it. In China, we always use chopsticks to eat noodles but in the restaurant, we had to use forks for there were no chopsticks there. And that was very inconvenient to use forks and I ate very slowly. I found that I had to learn how to use forks correctly before I go abroad.
I think the environment of the restaurant was perfect because there were some Italian songs played and we could see the street by the window. It was so quiet in the restaurant that we almost could hear our breath though there were many people there. Mostly people came from foreign countries such as USA, UK and French. The service was also very nice. However, I would never recommend other people to come to this restaurant because the price was too high and that was not worth.

Having Dinner in a Western Restaurant











On December 30th, I went to Fusions Tacos to have dinner with my classmates and some grade 12 students. The restaurant is on Zhujiang road and on the top floor of the Golden Eagle Shopping Mall. We met at about 5 o’clock at the restaurant and I arrived at 4:50pm with Jack and Kevin. Students in grade12 chose this restaurant for us because this restaurant is cheap and traditional. We enjoyed ourselves in the restaurant instead of the party at school.
The environment in the restaurant was very good and there was music when we have dinner. The colorful light created an atmosphere of harmony and comfort. I ordered a huge pizza and a glass of lemonade. And the pizza was called Chet Pizza. I really liked that pizza because it had a lot of meat and sausages on it. The bread was baked very soft and with the special spice. It tasted very delicious. The lemonade was tasty, cool and a little bit sour. In China, we usually eat rice and with several kinds of dishes so that we can get what we want from the dish. But there they put all the things on the bread and we just eat the whole thing in front us.
Most of the customers there were from foreign countries. There were also some lovers and youths there. However, I think the service there was not very good. It took us a long time to wait for some of dishes that we ordered. Maybe we had too many people there, but they seemed a little forgettable. And that led to some of us had already finished eating when other’s dishes were still not done.
In all, I will recommend my parents and other friends to have dinner there. The flavor there is great and the environment is perfect. It will be a nice place to take if you do not have any urgent things to do.
