Daniel: Grandpa, this restaurant looks really old! How long ago was it built?

Grandpa: I'm not sure when it started. But I know it's older than me. As a young boy, I used to eat here a lot.

Daniel: Oh, it's interesting. Dad told me you brought him here when he was young, too. Now, it's my turn.

Grandpa: Yeah. We are the VIP customers here. So, what do you want to eat today?

Daniel: I'd like to eat a hamburger and a bottle of coca-cola.

Grandpa: Hey, kid, that's wrong. It's a Chinese restaurant. Let's eat something traditional.

Daniel: Then there is nothing particular I'd like to eat. Grandpa, what's your favorite here?

Grandpa: The Chinese rice pudding. Your father loves it, too. You wanna try?

Daniel: Sure. Is it sweet?

Grandpa: Yes, of course. But I think they can make you a salty one, too.

Daniel: Great, I want it spicy.

Grandpa: Come on. Don's go too far.

Daniel: I want it to be special. And you know that I always like hot food.

Grandpa: OK then. We shall ask them to put some red chilli on it.

Daniel: I'm sure I'd like that.

Grandpa: I hope so.
