【Aiden in English】

        Mexican food is known worldwide. Many places have Mexican restaurants, and probable one of the best is Chili's Grill & Bar. The Chili's is a formal dining with a variety of Mexican selections. Tonight, Mom, a little sister, and I have to say, it has been a long time since we ate real Mexican food.

        The fajitas and tostada are my favorite. The chicken and pork roasted just right, the marinated veggies tasted well, and the salad color looked appealing, too. Unluckily, this kind of food also didn't sound like the unhealthiest food. The veggies were soaked in oil and there was far too much cheese.

        Cheese becomes the largest problem. Mexican food always needs to have cheese, or else it isn't called Mexican. And when you intake a lot of cheese, you have a lot of calories. But oh well, we came to have a good time, not to go on a diet.

        墨西哥食品名噪全球，許多地方都散發墨西哥風味，其中最具代表性的餐館大概當屬紅辣椒燒烤酒吧。“紅辣椒”實為正統的墨西哥餐廳，提供各種墨式菜系。今晚我與媽媽和妹妹一起親臨此地飽嘗烹飪珍饈，可以說我們已有好長時間沒有吃過這么正宗的墨西哥美味佳餚。

        “法士達”自製肉菜夾心卷餅和生菜豆子脆玉米麵比薩餅可謂我的最愛，雞肉和豬肉燒烤得恰到好處，紅燒蔬菜味道鮮美，生菜沙拉色調誘人。美中不足的是，這類食物吃起來並不那麼健康，炒菜的油過大，拼盤的奶酪過多。

        奶酪的確成為人們最為糾結的問題，墨西哥菜系少不了奶酪，否則談不上墨西哥菜系。在大量攝入奶酪的同時，體內熱卡指標隨之攀升，但我們到這裡純粹為了享受美食，絕非衝着節食減肥而來。
