My Favorite Food | Like and Dislike

Hello, everyone! Today, I want to talk about my favorite food (makanan kesukaanku).

My favorite food is pizza. I like (aku suka) pizza because it tastes (rasanya) delicious (lezat) and has (memiliki) many toppings (taburan-atas) like (seperti) cheese (keju), pepperoni (pepperoni), and vegetables (sayuran). I usually (saya biasanya) eat (makan) pizza with my family (dengan keluarga) on weekends (pada akhir pekan).

However (Tetapi), I don’t like (aku tidak suka) broccoli (brokoli). I think (menurutku) it tastes a little bitter (sedikit pahit), and I prefer (saya lebih suka) other vegetables (sayuran lain) like carrots (wortel) or potatoes (kentang).

More Indonesian Food

Actually (sebenarny), many foods (banyak makanan) from different countries (dari negara-negara yang berbeda) cannot (tidak bisa) be directly (secara langsung) translated (diterjemahkan) into other languages (ke dalam bahasa yang lain). First (pertama), because (karena) they have names (mereka mempunyai nama) that are deeply rooted (yang berasal dari) in the local culture (budaya lokal) or tradition (atau tradisi lokal), like (seperti) sushi from Japan or rendang from Indonesia. Second (kedua), because Some foods (beberapa  makanan) don’t exist (tidak terdapat) in other countries (di negara lain), so there’s no (jadi, tidak ada) direct word (kata yang tepat) to describe (untuk menyebut) them (makanan itu). For example, tempeh is unique (hanya ada) to Indonesia.
