Australians Eat Whole World’s Food
I can’t decide what I want to eat for dinner tonight.
Do I feel like Italian food or Thai food? Indian or Chinese? American or Turkish? I don’t need to travel around the world; all these choices are available in a typical inner city in Australia.
Australian food has many different cultural influences.Over the past century，people from many countries have come to Australia.These migrants(移民) have contributed to the melting pot that is Australian food.
“Whether you’re after modern，traditional or exotic flavors，Australia’s various dining scene offers a wide range of the world’s great cuisines(菜肴)，” the Visit Victoria website noted.
Some Australian families may restrict their diet to the basic “meat and three veg” meal: one sort of meat(chicken，beef，lamb，and so on)，along with three different types of vegetables (usually potatoes，peas and carrots)．But most people enjoy the variety.
If I were to pick four meals that every Australian eats，they would be Italian spaghetti bolognaise(意式肉酱面)，Chinese fried rice，British fish and chips and Thai green chicken curry.
Chinese students in Australia find it easy to get a Chinese meal.Cities like Sydney have large Chinatowns，but many towns in the country also have a Chinese takeaway restaurant.
Popular AustralianChinese dishes may not always seem authentic，Honey Chicken，for example，but you can still find dumplings and noodles.
Even so，Australia has its own，very Australian savory(可口的) dish: meat pie.It’s a real classic! The dish is on the menu at every house party and sporting venue(场所)，and is eaten every morning after a big night.
And who could forget desserts? We Australians often fight with New Zealanders over who has the rightful claim to the Pavlova(奶油蛋白甜饼) and Lamington(巧克力椰丝方形蛋糕) desserts，both equally delicious and sweet.
