[speaker001:] So, what 's new in the kitchen? That refrigerator is new, isn 't it?
[speaker002:] Yes. I needed a large one. Before, I had a separate refrigerator and freezer, but this has both combined into one.
[speaker001:] That 's usual nowadays. You 'Ve added a few shelves too.
[speaker002:] Yes. You know I 'Ve been cooking more kind of food recently and I needed some extra space for spices and ingredients.
[speaker001:] Did you buy new cupboards too?
[speaker002:] No, I didn 't. I gave them a really good clean, so they just look new. The worktop was in poor condition, so I had a new one added.
[speaker001:] I see that you have bought several new pots and pans and utensils.
[speaker002:] Yes, I have. I need them to help me with these new dished I 'm trying to make. I need a little more practice before I invite guests over.
[speaker001:] Looking at the spice rack, I 'd say you 'Ve been learning how to make asian food.
[speaker002:] Yes. I 'Ve always likes Indian and thai food, so I 'Ve been trying to make dishes from those countries. I 'm pretty good at making curries now, but I still need practice at making thai food.
[speaker001:] Both kinds of food are becoming popular. Nowadays, it 's very easy to pick up the ingredients at the supermarket.
[speaker002:] I hope you can stay for dinner. I need a guinea pig!
