Well, friends, today we have been talking about our eREPORT and learning about
hot pot.
Sometimes when you go to hot pot, you can order food from a waiter or waitress.
And don't forget, a waiter is a boy and a waitress is a girl.
And when you go to hot pot, you boil your food there yourself.
What other foods do you boil?
Maybe noodles and eggs.
OK. Now let's watch the rest of today's eREPORT.
When you eat at a hot pot restaurant, you can have different kinds of sauces.
You can choose what to put into your sauce and then dip your food into it.
The sauce can make the food taste better.
In this restaurant, people have a sauce for vegetables and a sauce for meat.
After you eat all the food in the hot pot, don't forget to drink the soup.
Mmm. It will taste very good after you cooked your vegetables and meat in it.
The last dish you may get is for dessert.
Dessert can often be sweet.
A hot pot meal is a good time for friends and family to get together to talk and
eat.
Hot pot is not a meal you should eat quickly.
You need to take time to enjoy cooking the food and talking with others.
Enjoying hot pot means time with friends and family.
Mmm.
Oh, excuse me.
I'm sorry, that was very rude.
I was slurping while drinking my soup.
Wait a minute.
I'm in Asia, that's OK.
But in North America, slurping is bad manners.
So I should apologize to my North American friend here.
I'm sorry for slurping.
Anyway, I have enjoyed a delicious hot pot meal here.
And you know what?
I feel like I'm actually quite tired because not only did I eat, but I had to
cook everything that I ate.
And I don't think I have any room for dessert.
No!
Although it does look really good.
Hmm, maybe I have a little bit of room for dessert.
OK, before I get to that, I need to say...
This is Gabe for eREPORT enjoying a hot pot meal with my new friend...
Um, excuse me, what's your name again?
Katie.
(Music).
So we've finished learning about picking out food at hot pot and how to cook it.
Now comes the fun part.
The fun part?
Isn't talking about all of this the fun part, Katie?
Well, yes. But the fun part is eating the hot pot.
When it's not so hot, then you can eat your food.
Well, I guess you're right.
And with hot pot, you can dip your food in all kinds of different sauces.
Sauces are extra things that you put on your food.
Mmm, delicious!
That sounds so good.
Yes, it is delicious.
Now, friends, delicious is a big word.
But it's just a way to talk about food that is really, really good.
Exactly.
Hot pot is delicious.
It's really good food.
Now once you're finished with the food, you can do something else with... at hot
pot.
You can drink the soup.
Mmm, delicious!
The soup is great to drink after you finish cooking and eating your food.
Yes, that's an important part of hot pot.
So don't forget to drink your soup, friends.
Now hot pot is very important in Asia.
It's a place for families and friends get together to talk and spend time
together.
That's right.
I love to go to hot pot with my friends.
And every time I go, I see a lot of families eating together.
I do, too.
And they really seem to enjoy their time together.
Have you ever been with your family to go to hot pot, Katie?
Well, I've never been able to take my family to eat hot pot.
But whenever I go eat hot pot, I don't go alone.
I always go with a big group of my friends.
And that's always fun.
Just like reviewing key words is fun.
Let's do that now.

My day was... well, you know, work was fine.
And listen, Miranda, there's a question I want to ask you.
Ooh... I like questions.
Well, you know what?

And you know I love you.

So I'm just going to say it.

Was that Super Sentence Man?

But, Miranda, I... I...
Failure.
Mmm. What a great show!
I'm ready to go to hot pot now, Nathan.
Me, too.
I'm ready to cook my own food and eat some delicious vegetables.
And don't forget, you can drink the delicious soup after you eat the food.
Oh, that's right.
Maybe we should get some friends together now and see if anyone can go with us.
It's almost time for dinner anyway.
Well, that's a great idea!
I think a lot of people would love to go eat hot pot together today.
So we're going to go eat some hot pot.
We're hungry now.
Yes, we are.
But we hope that you enjoyed today's show.
And we hope that you learned a lot.
I know that we did.
Well, join us tomorrow for our Saturday show.

It will be very helpful for you.
