Essay 2-02b:Form of meal in British




This time, I looked some website about British Life and Culture. I am very interested in foods and dishes. I become happy when I eat something. Especially, I like British very much, because I have a friend who is from British. I want to know about British Life and culture. Then, I looked for some web site about British dishes and found pictures of looks delicious dishes in the web site. Now, I want to write about meals. Especially, I write about puddings and form of breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea and dinner.

First, I want to write about puddings. I didn’t know about puddings. Puddings are used milk, sugar, eggs, flour, butter and many involve fresh fruit, custard, cream and cakes. Apple or rhubarb crumble, bread and butter pudding, spotted dick and trifle are more traditional and well-known as home-made puddings. Especially, I want to eat Bread and butter pudding, because I like bread and butter, and I love sweet taste. I am interested in Custard. This page written about puddings has a lot of information about many kinds of pudding, so I recommend you

Then, I want to write about form of breakfast. Today, typical British day begin with bowl of cereals, a slice of toast, orange juice and a cup of coffee for breakfast. This menu is very typical, so I know about it. I also sometimes eat like this menu in break fast, so I was not surprised.

How about lunch? A typical British people eat a sandwich, a packet of crisps, a piece of fruit and a drink. Almost people have a ‘packet lunch’. It is not different in Japan.

Next, I want to write about tea. Afternoon tea is famous as a culture in British. The time of afternoon tea is before the time of dinner. I know the culture of afternoon tea. Then, I think that today’s British people also enjoy afternoon tea. However, I was surprised because I knew the fact that afternoon tea is not common. When I looked the web site about tea, I knew high tea. High tea is like dinner or supper today. When I stayed in NZ, child of my host family ate some cereals for supper. I remembered it by the page.

How about dinner? British people like eating curry rice or pasta for dinner. It is not also different in Japan. After the time of dinner, they enjoy spending the time of supper like a high tea. However, the Sunday lunchtime is different. They eat some traditional dishes. I want to eat roast lamb. It is very big meat, so I was surprised. I have never eaten so big meat.
