“Come on, stop staring at the view. All the yummy and delicious food will be sold out if you
don’t go there fast enough. All the visitors will snatch them right away, so come along or else I won’t wait
for you, I’m going to get all the good stuff and you won’t. Ha ha, see you later!” taunted Alex making faces
at her. Michelle ran after him right away. They finally arrived at the food street. There were many delicious
food there, Michelle saw one Portuguese Egg Tart and it looked so attractive, so Alex bought him and
Michelle one egg tart each. There is the pork chop bun. It is marinated and has tender pork chop inside a
warm toasted soft bun. But Michelle isn’t interested so she didn’t buy it.
“ Macau’s signature almond cookies can be found almost on every food street,” said Alex “ Maybe
you can give some cookies your parents too!”
“You can try to eat street food skewers in Macau. If you wanted to taste better you can ask for extra
spicy curry sauce. It mixes well with the food skewers.” Alex advised Michelle. Michelle‘s mouth watered
from seeing so many Macau’s cultural, delicious and yummy food.
“Meat jerky is also very popular in Macau. It can be a hot and spicy pork jerky or a honey roasted
pig.” Said Alex proudly presenting the representatives of Macau’s food. “The Serradura, also known as
sawdust pudding, is a Portuguese dessert in Macau that is made of layers of Maria tea biscuits and sweetened
vanilla whipped cream. It is very sweet too!”
“ Wow, I can’t believe Macau has so many famous foods!!” exclaimed Michelle who just gobbled up
a seaweed pork floss roll.
They were quite full from all the eating so they went to the next tourism attraction.
Next, they went to the Cybernetic Fountain.
“ The Cybernetic Fountain is the largest man-made water fountain in Asia. Through it eighty-six
water spouts, The main cannon shoots a spray of water eighty metres high.” Explained Alex.
“Wow, that is so cool!” Michelle exclaimed.
“The Taipa village is a small and peaceful community with narrow streets, markets and great Macanese
food.”
“You can like live there literally, haha,”giggled Michelle, “ The tour that you gave me was so cool.
Thanks so much Alex.”
“ No problem.(winks)” joked Alex.
Suddenly, a gust of wind came and covered her eyes and when she opened her eyes...She was back in
her room, with her writing book, her notebook and her pencil.

time writing. )At last she got the highest point in the whole class of writing an adventure and you know the
reason why… am I right?
