Sample  An unforgettable eating experience

Yesterday evening, we went to the hotel buffet. We came to the second floor. The restaurant is like a palace. My parents found a table, then we couldn't wait to find some favorite food: roast duck, roast fish, tasty pastries, appetizing prawn, pizza, pancake ... I really didn’t know which to pick. A steak fragrance came. I followed the fragrance, and picked up some steak. Roast duck was very delicious and I ate some. I also had some fries and fillet folder, and came down a bar of cool Sprite. We ate well enough. The hotel buffet was an unforgettable eating experience.
