CAN BRITISH COOK?

Who says British can´t cook?????

They are famous for their PIES

If you happen to have lunch in England, try one of the typical English pubs but make sure that you find COTTAGE PIE on the menu , otherwise, not really British!!!

I suddenly forgot the main ingredients of a typically British COTTAGE PIE

Please, take a look at these pictures and tell me which of these do you need to make it.

Don´t forget to use "some, a , an" to refer to the ingredients.

Can you tell me the difference between COTTAGE PIE and SHEPHERD´S PIE ?

LOST IN ALCALA

My friend Angela has just arrived in Alcala de Henares from Liverpool

It´s 10 o´clock in the evening and she needs to find a place to sleep and to eat something .

I think the best place is "La Hostería del Estudiante" although it is not cheap.

Can anybody help her? She has a map of Alcalá de Henares and she would appreciate it if you

could give her directions on how to get there from the railway station.

Looking forward to your reply!!!!
