The Chicken Rice Shop

One day, my family and I went to a restaurant nearby our house, called ’’The Chicken Rice Shop’’. We went there to eat our dinner. There, the menu had two packages, Package A and Package B. In Package A, there was fried rice with fried chicken, a bowl of ice cream for dessert, and orange juice. In Package B, there was chicken soup, a plate of rice, salad, fruits for dessert, and apple juice. Both of the packages have the same price, which is RM15. The price was very reasonable. We bought Package B because there was more food and we prefer fruits than ice cream for dessert.

The food was very delicious. My whole family enjoyed eating all the food. While eating in the restaurant, I saw people keep coming into the shop to eat their dinner. The restaurant was so crowded. I was so happy looking at everyone eating in the restaurant happily.

While eating I started to think and compare home-cooked food and the food prepared in the Chicken Rice Shop. The home-cooked food normally prepared with herbs and spices, which is very good for health while the restaurant uses the taste-enhancing product to make the food taste even delicious. The restaurant also use less spices but more in artificial flavours, which also makes the food taste even better.

The food in the shop was very delicious. I had a great experience eating at ‘The Chicken Rice Shop’’. Next time, I will come to this restaurant again and will recommend some of the experiences to my friends and neighbours.
