  1. Ian Toh : My idea is to try a little of each dish at the buffet spread, then select the ones that I really like, which is the grilled prawns and chicken drumsticks. In my opinion, we should not waste food by taking too much food at one go. We should not overeat as this will upset our digestive system. In my opinion, it is important to eat with our family often. This will give us a chance to spend quality time with them.

  3. Matthew Thien: my idea is to try the steam fish,salad, mixed vegetables and fishballs. In my opinion, we should not try too many food or else we will have stomachache. And tasting too many food may make us vomit. Looking at the picture, there are a lot of food in each dish. As we try, we should not eat too many food at once. This may upset our stomach, too.

  4. Javier Chua: My idea is to start with something light first, for example salad or mixed vegetables, then I will go for steamed fish and chicken drumsticks so that I can digest better. My opinion is not to over eat and take too much heavy stuff. I think it is very important to eat with my family so that we can have better bondings.

  5. 1. My idea is to try everything in the picture, but not too many food in each dish. Because some food are healthy some food are not.

    2.In my opinion, I think it is good to eat with our families, because there are too many food in each dish. We cannot finish all the food by our own. More than one person can finish the dish.
