Sample answers

Sample answer to these questions

Yes, my country is very multicultural, so it's easy to find international cuisine, especially in urban areas. I enjoy trying different foods, often opting for sushi or Korean barbecue once or twice a week. I've attempted making pasta and some Japanese dishes at home, which was fun. I highly recommend nasi lemak, a traditional dish that showcases our diverse food culture.
