    Well, my family usually enjoys our dinner at home with simple and traditional dishes, but there
    was an occasion we had a very special meal together in a fancy restaurant.

    It was around 3 years ago when I was tied up in revision for my final examination. After that
    high-pressure time, I passed the exam with flying colors so my dad decided to ease my
    mind by taking the whole family to a foreign restaurant for enjoying a cozy meal together.

    That dinner was a little unusual to my family because we had never eaten in such a luxurious
    restaurant, so my mother and I were very surprised at that time.

    This French/ Indian/ Thai/ Japanese…restaurant is located in downtown Ho Chi Minh City.
    Because it is situated in a well-trodden area, this restaurant welcomes hundreds of guests every
    night.

    The food here, therefore, wasn’t very budget-friendly. Actually, it cost my family an arm and
    a leg, which made this dinner even more special to me. Even though my dad is not the kind of
    person who makes a killing, he was still willing to take my mom and me to such a restaurant as
    a reward for my hard work. So I really appreciated him for that.

    I really enjoyed this dinner because it really helped me to relieve everyday stress and chill out
    after long hard-working days. Besides, this unusual meal was also a very good chance for us to
    strengthen our family bond because we all have been so busy for a long time.

    In the future I will try to earn a lot of money to take my family to wonderful places like this to
    try different cuisines and outstanding dishes, like lobster, abalone and salmon.
