雅思口语范文:a kind of foreign food

I’d like to talk about Kimchi which is a traditional Korean dish.
Kimchi means a lot to Korean people, basically every family knows how to make it. The home-made Kimchi is a specialty in Korea. In America, when people are posing for the camera, they would say ‘cheese’, but I heard in Korea, people would say ‘Kimchi’.
I first ate it when I was travelling in Korea, one of our stops was a shop that makes and sells canned Kimchi. The local guide showed us how to make the dish, and the shop owner even provided ingredients for us to try it ourselves, which was a lot of fun. It was basically pickled cabbage with specially made sauce, the owner gave us free samples to try, it was crisp, and the leaves were soft and chewy. The texture was really special. We could choose to buy some for our relatives back at home, and they even offered free shipping service, which is quite considerate.
But my mom said, there’s Kimchi available at many supermarkets in China, so we didn’t buy it. And after we went back home, the first thing I did was run to the store and bought some so-called Korean Kimchi. But it didn’t taste the same as the one I tried in Korea. So you see, it has become my biggest regret that I didn’t buy some when I was there.
So next time when you are in Korea, you definitely should get some authentic Kimchi there.
