Speaker 1
I went to a new restaurant with my friends yesterday, and I found the food very delicious. They serve both Indian and Chinese dishes. I think you will find it great as well, I recommend you should try it out when you get the chance.
Speaker 2
Yeah I think I would like that a lot. Not too many places have Indian and Chinese food at the same location. What did you end up getting? 
Speaker 1
I had a couple of curry dishes that I tried. They were pretty great, but not as good as mine.. but I could be bias. Have you ever tried curry?
Speaker 2
No but you told me you made it really well. I would really like to try yours if we can figure out a good night to do it.
Speaker 1
That would be fun! We could do a big get together maybe with your family and a couple friends. Maybe we could all try different things together.
Speaker 2
My twin sister is in town I could invite her. Sounds like a great time. How is tennis going? Get to much recently? 
Speaker 1
Of course you should invite her. Tennis is great. I'm enjoying it whenever I can but I get really busy with work. Speaking of.. how goes the dental practice?
Speaker 2
It’s keeping me very busy. Lots of new people are stopping by the practice lately and I’m having to work more hours but I can’t complain. Did you find any job that you qualify for with your masters in business yet? I bet a lot of companies would love to have you. 
Speaker 1
I haven't yet but I'm working on it. THe job industry is booming right now and they need workers so it shouldn't be long!
Speaker 2
And I’m sure with your education you would a catch
Speaker 1
Well here's to hoping! Anyhow we should definitely set up a Indian food making party. I think it would be fun and I would be happy to teach you all how to make some basic dishes or even harder ones if you want.
Speaker 2
Yeah I would love to learn. I’m up for the challenge and you’d be a great teacher.

Speaker 1
Have you had a chance to try any new foods? 
Speaker 2
Yes, I went to new Chinese restaurant downtown. I had a really good bowl of war wonton soup. Have you ever made that?
Speaker 1
I have! Wonton soup is fairly easy to make, actually. It doesn't involve too many ingredients, and is hard to mess up. I'd be happy to send you my recipe, if you'd lile.
Speaker 2
Well, that would be awesome. I'd love to try to make it. Where did you get your recipe?
Speaker 1
I found a starter recipe online, and I've tweaked and altered it throughout the years to suit my tastes.
Speaker 2
It sounds wonderful. What are some of your favorite recipes? Like your go-to dinner recipe if you want something fast?
Speaker 1
Hmm... sweet n' sour chicken is a great go-to. Something like beef & broccoli would work too--it's easy to freeze and reheat the following day. Fried rice is also quick to make, but requires that you have refrigerated rice from yesterday's meal for it to work.
Speaker 2
I love beef and broccoli and that is a great recommendation to freeze it. I've never thought of that. How's your job going?
Speaker 1
My job's been alright, I guess. Sometimes busy and a bit boring, but it pays the bills. Can't complain too much about that.
Speaker 2
What do you do again? Are you a teacher?
Speaker 1
No, I'm in middle management, but I do like teaching and mentoring new grads.
Speaker 2
Oh, I see. That does sound like it's pretty busy - no wonder you have all the tips on making food for dinner.

I am interested in making Chinese foods at home.
Speaker 1
I was thinking I could teach you how to cook Chinese food using the video chat. We can both buy ingredients and then cook over video together, in our own kitchens!
Speaker 2
Oh, that'd be wonderful! You know how much I love Chinese food, but my wallet doesn't! You know, you could take teaching cooking as a sideproject. I could be your guinea pig for that!
Speaker 1
That's a great idea, actually! It could be an alternate career path for me. Do you use Skype? I feel like this is something that could be done virtually!
Speaker 2
Oh, I haven't used Skype in years! Haha, that was for my chats with friends, basically. Lots of Zoom now, as you know. But yeah, I think that's a great idea! And hey, you already have experience with mentoring grads. Would Chinese food be your favorite one to teach?
Speaker 1
That's a good question. I'd probably focus on both Chinese and Indian, since I'm really into those two cuisines. As a customer, what sorts of recipes would be first on your list to learn?
Speaker 2
Oh, something simple! So, I think wonton soup or any other kind of soup would be a good place to start. I'm afraid of starting off with stuff that I can overcook or undercook too heavily. Being able to see a boiling pot will put me at ease. How does that sound?
Speaker 1
That sounds pretty reasonable. Fortunately, Chinese and Indian food can be prepared fairly easily. It's not like French haute cuisine haha.
Speaker 2
Oh, yeah, I'd have to build up to that. What's something you'd want to learn? Out of a different culture, or something tough within one you're familiar? 
Speaker 1
Hmm, in what sense? Food-wise, or in another field? I would be interested in learning another language, definitely.
Speaker 2
Haha, food-wise, but yeah, I'd love to learn Mandarin, myself.
Speaker 1
That's an idea: combine a cooking course with a language course! I'd bet you that there's a big market for that!
Speaker 2
That'd be a wonderful idea! Showing someone how to cook a meal, walking them through different phrases and conventions. All this talk's getting me hungry. Besides soup, I'd love to learn how to make beef and broccoli. I could really go for it now!

I'd love to learn the Mandarin language.
Speaker 1
I found a great recipe for beef and broccoli that I think you will love.
Speaker 2
Cool! Is it a complicated recipe?
Speaker 1
Not really, but you do need specific ingredients that you will need to get from Asian grocery stores. It's a pretty quick recipe.
Speaker 2
There is an Asian market I've never visited. This will give me the perfect reason. What will I need to get there?
Speaker 1
There's this soybean paste that does a great job enhancing the flavors of the beef in a stir fry with broccoli. I'll send the pic of the product sometime. Let me know if you want the recipie.
Speaker 2
Do please send it. I'm looking forward to trying it. What else have you been doing?
Speaker 1
Great! Let me know how it goes. I've been mentoring recent grads on job hunting, I forgot how nerve racking it is for recent grads. How about you, how have you been?
Speaker 2
I have been enjoying the summer weather. I am getting up early to walk before I go to work. 
Speaker 1
Oh that's nice. The weather has been great recently. Have you been improving your Maradrin? I think I'm going to start learning it soon.
Speaker 2
I've just been listening to some beginners and travellers lessons. It is so much more difficult than I expected.
Speaker 1
I've been looking into grammar books, it really does look hard. Though that also makes it interesting!
Speaker 2
I know it is a tonal language and the beginner lessons haven't metioned anything about it. So, I am afraid I will learn it wrong. I may need to look for a class where I will have a teacher to answer my questions.
