Xiao Liu (a pseudonym), who never cooks at home, started cooking every day after arriving in Spain. At first, I only cooked noodles. In order to enrich my diet, I began to study the practice of various dishes, and later learned to cook local paella. He told us that when we study here, we must learn to cook. Cooking at first often fails, but it's good to practice. Sometimes we eat delicious food outside and go online to find electronic recipes to practice. Now we think cooking is quite interesting. Indeed, cooking is sometimes full of fun, but cooking by yourself for a long time sometimes suffers from persistence. Sisi (a pseudonym) told us that she found cooking really troublesome. In her first year in Spain, she often cooks, but it is very tiring to cook different dishes for herself every day, mainly because the variety of dishes is not very rich, and the price is not cheap to buy a small amount of materials to cook at home. Wang, who is studying in Spain, feels the same way: there are few kinds of dishes sold in supermarkets, and the seasonings needed for cooking Chinese food are not easy to buy, so sometimes he is too lazy to cook. It's much more convenient to eat out. Only on an occasional whim will you try to cook a delicious meal.
Short Festival (pseudonym) is also in Madrid, which is a party for eating out. I feel different from most international students. I don't usually cook. I basically go to restaurants outside. Xiao Qin, a senior at University College London, told me that she couldn't cook. She often goes to Usera (Chinese area) for dinner, and most of them choose Chinese food, or occasionally choose Asian food such as Japanese food and Korean food. Prices generally range from 25 euros to 30 euros. Although it is not cheap, it is acceptable. Chinese restaurants here are delicious and there are many kinds, mainly Sichuan food.
Also full of praise for Chinese restaurants is Wang, a student studying in Spain. There are generally two kinds of Chinese restaurants in Spain, one is the form of ordering food, both of which are rice, and the price is 5 euros. There is also a buffet, one person 10 Euro. Mr. Wang also told the author that Chinese food in Spain is very delicious, and it is not strange at all. Because Spaniards eat less spicy food, they are all salty and sweet. Although the price is more expensive, it is good to have a meal once in a while.
In other words, if you are tired of studying and working, want to be lazy and don't want to cook at home, you might as well go out for a meal. If you choose to eat fast food, there are many choices, such as Burger King, McDonald's and KFC. The price is about 6 euros per package, which is relatively affordable. If you choose to eat Spanish foreigners' meals, there are still many choices in Spain, because the eating habits in different parts of Spain are different. It can be said that the Spanish people have reached the standard of diversity in the food field, which is vivid and colorful. Simply put, Spain can be divided into six cooking regions: North China, Pyrenees, Catarro, Valencia, Andalusia, Central Spain, Balearic Islands and Canary Islands. If you really can't get used to western food, you can only cook at home or go out for Chinese food or Asian food!
