We all enjoy eating good food<\/strong>, no matter where we are from. \"Cooking,Focus differs from country to country when it comes to the way we enjoy it, though. While some people eat only to\u00a0live, some others consider meals as\u00a0another way to spend some quality time with friends and relatives. What about cooking<\/strong>? During my tiem here in\u00a0London, I have seen an increased interest in\u00a0learning how to cook or to improve the quality of\u00a0our cooking. I am including myself here. Check the pictures some of the dishes below. What are your favourite dishes to cook?<\/p>\n

Cooking<\/strong> is a great pastime. I had always had an interest, but there are two facts that have pushed the most for me to\u00a0learn to cook properly:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. I\u00a0live out of my parents\u00b4 house;<\/li>\n
  2. The great possibilities for us to\u00a0learn about different cuisines here – even your own country\u00b4s!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    It is funny to see how excited people can get over a dish that others have been eating their\u00a0whole\u00a0lives. This is especially so if their cuisine is not too rich. Social media<\/strong> has made it possible for us to share pics of yummy-looking dishes. Pinterest is full of them.<\/p>\n

    It is always fun to explore<\/strong>, and so I have made over the years a few dishes that I would have never known they existed, as well as well-known\u00a0others I didn\u00b4t know that I could cook properly. Experiments have not always been successful, but as I said I think it is fun to just try and do it.\u00a0Here are some of those pictures. Bon app\u00e9tit!<\/p>\n
