Chinese Food and Japanese Food

         Do you really know your food as well as you think you do? I didn’t! I thought that Japanese food and Chinese food were the same thing, but know I know that they are different in tastes, the way they are prepared, and even what tea is served.

          Chinese food is a great choice for family dinners or nights out with lots of friends. With a large variety of flavors (such as tangy, sweet and sour, and spicy) and huge portions, it is a sure-fire way to please everyone. Some of these mouthwatering foods are aromatic prawns, batter fried shrimp glazed with a tangy and spicy orange sauce, and sesame chicken, chicken covered in a brown sauce and sesame seeds. Also, Chinese food uses more chicken and pork than Japanese food. You could probably find half a dozen dishes with pork or chicken at a Chinese Restaurant, but only about two chicken dishes and probably no pork dishes at a Japanese restaurant.

          Japanese food is good for quiet meals or calm afternoons. The atmosphere usually soothes you and brings you to peaceful state of mind. Japanese food is often served in an artistic manner, using vegetables and fruit to make a unique picture of the food served. There are a number of things served at a Japanese restaurant such as tempura (batter fried shrimp and/or vegetables), sushi (rice with seafood and/or vegetables in/on it and eaten with soy sauce and wasabi if desired), and sashimi (similar to sushi, except you control the amount of rice, seafood, soy sauce, and wasabi). And if your not in the mood for seafood, try something with the infamous teriyaki sauce. Teriyaki sauce is a clear, sweet, dark brown sauce that goes well with chicken, beef, and seafood.

          Overall, I would say that both types of food have extreme variety and are great to eat, but are totally different. The only things I found that are similar are that both are eaten with chopsticks, rice and tea (Japanese restaurants serve green tea and Chinese restaurants serve oolong and jasmine tea) and both frequently serve meat and seafood. So now when people say "Chinese food, Japanese food. What’s the difference?" you can tell them. And finally, since I think that both types of food are tremendously good, and I have no personal preference between the two, I encourage everyone who reads or hears this essay, to go to a Chinese restaurant and a Japanese restaurant and develop their own opinion.

5th grade

               My dream is one that is almost impossible. To start off, I want to go to U.S.C or Michigan. I will begin my life by playing pro in the M.L.B. I want to play at least twelve years and break many records. I will want to keep many friends. After I want start my own hotel and it will be very fancy. It will be located in Maui and I will call it the Paradise Resorts. My hotel will be somewhat like a fancy Hilton but I will make some adjustments. It will be like everything you can think of but better. I will live in the hotel and make my own suite. I probably will have a wife and two kids. I am hoping that my dreams will come true and I think I am very capable of making them come true.
