Sample answer:
Cote Brasserie is an amazing French restaurant located in Muswell Hill, North London.
I have recently dinned there as a friend of mine advised visiting the place not only
due to reasonably priced food but also the magnificent décor which makes you feel as
if you were in one of those cosy Parisian’s restaurants.
Being a vegan prevented me from selecting such delicacies as duck breast or steak sirloin
nevertheless, the restaurant offers a wide variety of vegan dishes. My two-course meal
consisted of a typical French, rather spicy, onion soup and a goat cheese salad, which was
kindly amended by an extremely helpful waitress, who replaced cheese with some organic
walnuts.
I was enjoying my meal being surrounded by typical Côte decor of rather basic leather
chairs, wooden tables and mirrors. What I disliked most were English songs played in the
background, and so neither the decor nor the music impressed me much.
Overall, I’d really recommend Cote Brasserie as it serves delicious and relatively inexpensive
French food, without a doubt it would even appeal to a French dinner looking for tasty dishes
accompanied by caring and professional staff, if only the interior was better.

XIAOMI, THE SMARTPHONE OF THE FUTURE
Are you one of those looking for a smartphone with the best features at the lowest price? If the answer is
yes, a Xiaomi smartphone could be the right one for you.
Precisely, I’m referring to Xiaomi Mi 10T Lite, which came out in 2020, march1. It is characterized2 by a
Snapdragon octa-core microprocessor, a memory of 6 GB and a hard-disk to choose from the version with
64 GB and that with 128 GB. Moreover, it is built with a good camera too, whose resolution is 64 mp.
Finally, for what concerns software3, it includes the latest version both Android and MIUI. I paid it4 €
279,00.
As far as I’m concerned, this device perfectly suits my daily needs. As for its features, I think they are the
best ones I could ask for that price. What really impressed me is the speed which it does whatever I
require with5. The only negative point I can find is the battery whose duration is not as long as I expected.
All in all, I highly recommend Xiaomi Mi 10T Lite.
