UNIT 5. FOOD AND DRINK READING I. Read the passage and decide whether the statements are TRUE or FALSE. In Vietnamese, bread is known as banh mi, which also refers to a specific type of traditional baguette. The banh mi is filled with meat, vegetables, butter, and sauce, much like a sandwich, although its shape is that of a baguette. There are various main ingredients, such as grilled pork, fish patty, or fried egg, and vegetables such as cucumber, onion, and carrot that can be used to fill the banh mi. This results in different varieties of banh mi, including banh mi thit (pork sandwich), banh mi thit nuong (grilled pork sandwich), banh mi cha lua (pork sausage sandwich), banh mi cha ca (fish patty sandwich), banh mi op-la (fried egg sandwich), banh mi ca moi (sardine sandwich), and many more. Although banh mi is often considered a street food, it can also be served as a main meal and is even a popular breakfast choice. Banh mi, along with other traditional Vietnamese dishes like pho, bun, and xoi, represents the beauty of Vietnamese cuisine.

While going out to eat for a special dish can be enjoyable, I prefer to prepare it myself. My favorite dish is a simple one - an omelet with minced tomatoes. The preparation of my omelet is similar to that of a typical omelet, but I add minced potatoes to the beaten eggs to give it a unique twist. Although it may not appear to be particularly special, this dish holds great significance to me. I recall my mom often showing me how to make it since she was always occupied and wanted me to be capable of preparing meals on my own. My mom is an excellent cook and taught me many of her techniques. Omelets are a popular meal enjoyed by individuals of all ages, including children, teenagers, and adults. However, it is important to consume them in moderation as they can contain excessive cholesterol. 1. According to the passage, what is the author's favorite dish? A. Omelet with minced tomatoes B.
