　　I'd like to describe a dinner I enjoyed very much. It happened last March, and that day was my birthday. So to celebrate this special occasion, my family and I decided to eat out in a restaurant. The restaurant we went to that day was a buffet restaurant on the fifth floor of a big shopping center. It wasn't far, only a 10-minute drive from my home.

　　Well, there were different kinds of food displayed in a public area of the restaurant. I remember we did enjoy a variety of foods, such as sea food, sushi, barbecues, and spaghetti. And there were beverages like beer, wine, juice and coffee. We also had ice creams and cakes for dessert. When we left the restaurant, we were totally stuffed!

　　You know, my mom is such a foodie that she kept bringing new types of food to our table until no one was going to eat anything anymore. Well, the food was great, which was one of the reasons why I enjoyed this meal. But most important, I and my family got to spend some time together. You know I went to a boarding school, so I was rarely home. My parents were just so glad that their kid was eating at the same table with them. And to be honest, I enjoyed their company, too.
