On a hot summer afternoon, there is nothing better than putting a rib eye steak on a scorching hot BBQ in my backyard. As the flame slowly chars the meat, the fat gradually sizzles, reigniting the fire below. This action makes very distinctive grill marks on the back of the meat.
When it is time to flip the thick piece of meat, it is extremely important to be careful not to burn our hands since the grill is probably 150C. After another 5 minutes of cooking, with corn and some buttered asparagus, my mouth-watering steak dinner is ready! The moment I chew on the meat, the tenderness and juicy flavour explode inside my mouth and my palate starts dancing all over my tongue.
I can only close my eyes to enjoy this lovely dinner with a glass of red wine. Although consuming an excessive amount of red meat is unhealthy, I will never give up my steak with another kind of protein.
Life is good!

8C, with algebra, make up three questions so you can sell them to EQAO
e.g. Steak dinner costs $12 more than a chicken dinner. All together the two dishes cost $58. How much for the chicken and steak dinner
Short writing (6 to 8 sentences, scored out of 50 points)
"What is your favourite food?" talk about the restaurant, atmosphere, taste, price, value, popularity and other factors). Must have at least 5 adjectives, 2 adverbs and 2 conjunctions in your short writing
Example:
On a cold winter afternoon, nothing tastes better than a bowl of steaming hot ramen with creamy, oily broth and thick noodles. Instantly, that warms me up in a small cozy Japanese restaurant, enjoying the meal with my buddies. The thickly sliced pork belly, together with the unbelievably flavourful beef chunks, should be nominated for a Michelin star. Maybe that is why ramen is getting popularity all over the city since there are so many new affordable noodle places in town.
Although the Costco hot dog is really inexpensive, the taste and flavour are unbeatable because it is made of real beef sausage, wrapped tightly in a warmed sesame bun. After one big bite into the front end of the dog, a massive amount of ketchup and a hint of yellow mustard spill all over my lips. If this isn't the best deal in town for $1.50, something must be wrong with your taste buds.
