>(Page 6 Exercise 5c)

1 snails and prawns with garlic: they were his favourite food when he was six or seven – quite unusual things for a British child to like.

2 the market: he remembers going to the market in Spain for the first time and being impressed by all the wonderful ingredients.

3 the restaurant: he wanted a restaurant that was informal, but served fantastic food.

4 mussels: they are an example of the kind of food he makes. He cooks Valencian mussels with Thai green curry paste.

5 a casserole: something which uses cheap ingredients, but can be wonderful with long careful cooking and what he most enjoys cooking.

6 desserts: he doesn’t like making desserts because you have to be very precise.        

>Page 6 Exercise 5d, track 1.8

1 the best thing: making people happy; the worst thing: the long hours

2 British customers always say that everything is lovely even if they don’t actually eat it

all, whereas Spanish customers are honest and say what they think.

3 Customers who want him to cook something in a way that he doesn’t think is very

good, for example a well-done steak.

4 He thinks they are getting worse. People are eating more unhealthily.

-Speaking about the connection between your studies and your

future job: what do we know about the cook studies and his final job?
