Describe a dinner that you enjoyed

ANSWERS

Sample 1: I like tasty food. I mean I can't say I'm a gourmet, but I won't eat anything and everything even when I'm very hungry. So everyone knows that inviting me to a good restaurant is a perfect way to please me.
One day my boyfriend invited me to eat out. It was our dating anniversary so I understood we wouldn't go to MacDonald's. But I couldn't even imagine that he would invite me to the most expensive restaurant in our city. I was on cloud nine 'cause I got an opportunity to try some exclusive super expensive dishes that I only heard about and saw in pictures.
I really wanted to try oysters as there were so many people who loved them and the same number of people who hated them. So, on the one hand, I wanted to form my own opinion about this type of seafood. On the other, I was a bit afraid. We ordered a large plate of oysters with very dry white wine.Although they were expensive, I thought there wouldn't be a better chance in the near future, so I was determined to taste them come what may.
My boyfriend started eating them, saying every other second how delicious they were. I plucked up my courage, took the first oyster and slurped it before I changed my mind. I liked it. You know if they hadn't been so expensive, I would have eaten three times as much. Now I understand why they are considered a culinary delicacy. I also persuaded my boyfriend to try fuagra and some other sophisticated dishes. This really was a gastronomic delight.
This dinner was special because, first of all, I felt special and loved. Also, I had never tried so many culinary delicacies during one meal. It was easily the best meal in my life. The food was so delicious that I thought I had died and gone to heaven.
Sample 2: Well, last year I visited a wonderful island called Mauritius. None of my friends had been there before, so all of them wanted me to tell them about this trip in detail. And, of course, all of them asked the same questions. So I decided to host a dinner at my house and answer all their questions not to repeat the same information many times.
At first, I wanted to initiate a get together at a café, but then I thought everyone would feel much more relaxed at my place. What's more, we could talk and laugh louder than if we went to a café. And, to my mind, this was the right decision as we had been talking till after midnight.
First, I gave everybody the souvenirs I'd brought from Mauritius. I bought small birds called Do-Do, a symbol of the island. Then I told everybody about life there, showed photos of beautiful pristine nature in the south of the island. After we had discussed my trip in detail, we started talking about no what was going on in our lives. And it wasn't difficult to find what to discuss as we hadn't seen each other for a long time, so everybody had interesting information to share. As I had a connecting flight in Dubai, I couldn't miss the opportunity to buy wine in its Duty Free shop. So we drank wine, ate juicy steaks, cheese, grapes and nuts. After that I treated everyone with ice-cream and chocolate cake which I made myself. This was a wonderful dinner.
