    Dear Alicia,

    It’s great to hear about your plan to visit England next month. How many days
    are you here for? Let’s meet in London to go shopping and have a meal
    together! There are restaurants from all over the world in London: Chinese,
    Italian, Indian, Brazilian and many more. There are fast-food restaurants, which
    are cheap and quick, but they are not very good for you. There are also very
    healthy salad bars and vegetarian restaurants.

    English breakfasts are BIG! In a full English breakfast there are many things:
    eggs, bacon, sausages, tomatoes, mushrooms, beans and toast. To drink,
    there’s tea, coffee or juice. After that, you aren’t hungry until the evening! For a
    smaller breakfast, people eat toast and jam, cereals or fruit and yoghurt. Most
    people have breakfast around 7:00-8:00am.

    At around 12:00-1:00 pm, people have a quick lunch – often a sandwich, a salad
    or some soup. Choose brown bread and salad on the sandwich to make it
    healthy. Dinner is usually at around 6:00-8:00 pm, though people sometimes
    eat later in restaurants. A very typical British dish is fish and chips, which is
    delicious, but not very healthy.

    Roast dinners with meat (chicken, beef or lamb), roast potatoes (yummy!),
    vegetables and gravy is typical to have for Sunday lunch. It’s very nutritious.

    However, the most popular British meal of them all is not actually British! It’s
    Chicken Tikka Masaala, a tasty Indian dish with lots of spices. You must try it – I
    love it!

    Can’t wait to see you.

    Martha.

    Traducción

    Estimada Alicia,

    Es genial escuchar acerca de su plan para visitar Inglaterra el próximo mes.


    ¿Cuántos días estás aquí? ¡Encontrémonos en Londres para ir de compras y
    comer juntos! Hay restaurantes de todo el mundo en Londres: chino, italiano,
    indio, brasileño y muchos más. Hay restaurantes de comida rápida, que son
    baratos y rápidos, pero no son muy buenos para ti. También hay bares de
    ensaladas muy saludables y restaurantes vegetarianos.

    ¡Los desayunos ingleses son GRANDES! En un desayuno inglés completo hay


    muchas cosas: huevos, tocino, salchichas, tomates, champiñones, frijoles y
    tostadas. Para beber, hay té, café o zumo. ¡Después de eso, no tienes hambre
    hasta la noche! Para un desayuno más pequeño, la gente come tostadas y
    mermelada, cereales o fruta y yogur. La mayoría de la gente desayuna entre las
    7:00 y las 8:00 a. m.

    Alrededor de las 12:00-13:00, la gente almuerza rápidamente, a menudo un


    sándwich, una ensalada o un poco de sopa. Elija pan integral y ensalada en el
    sándwich para que sea saludable. La cena suele ser entre las 6:00 y las 8:00 p.
    m., aunque a veces la gente come más tarde en los restaurantes. Un plato
    británico muy típico es el fish and chips, que es delicioso, pero no muy
    saludable.

    Las cenas de asado con carne (pollo, ternera o cordero), patatas asadas (¡qué
    rico!), verduras y salsa son típicas para el almuerzo de los domingos. es muy
    nutritivo

    Sin embargo, ¡la comida británica más popular de todas no es realmente


    británica! Es Chicken Tikka Masaala, un sabroso plato indio con muchas
    especias. Tienes que probarlo, ¡me encanta!

    No puedo esperar a verte.

    Marta.
