Felipe: Hello, Katherine, I'm fine, you?

菲利佩：你好，凯瑟琳，我很好，你呢？

Katia: Good. Actually I'm starving and I wanted to ask you about food. What is your favorite Colombian food?

卡蒂亚：我很好。我饿了，我想问你有关食物的事情。你最喜欢的哥伦比亚食物是什么？

Felipe: Well, in Colombia we have many, many different kinds of food but something that I would recommend you to eat is the Bandeja. Bandeja paisa is a traditional Colombian food and it's made out of meat, fried meat, potatoes. You would also have salad, rice, corn and some sausages. That's really, really delicious. That's something I recommend you to try.

菲利佩：哥伦比亚有很多种美食，我想推荐给你的是什锦饭。什锦饭是哥伦比亚传统食物，是用肉、炒肉和土豆做的。里面还有沙拉、米饭、玉米和香肠。非常非常美味。这是我想推荐给你品尝的。

Katia: Bandeja. I have heard of it. What about something else? Maybe do you have soups in Colombia.

卡蒂亚：什锦饭。我听过过个。还有什么美食？哥伦比亚也有汤吧。

Felipe: Yeah, you're right. We have many different kinds of soups in Colombia because in Colombia there are many different kinds of potatoes and corn. So, for example, if you travel to the center, the central part of Colombia, if you travel to the capital Bogota, you will find a soup called ajijaco. Ajijaco is composed of potatoes, corn, some cream and also some meat. You know, it's quite delicious.

菲利佩：对，没错。我们哥伦比亚有很多种汤，因为哥伦比亚有很多种土豆和玉米。比如，如果你去哥伦比亚中部地区，如果你去首都波哥大，那里有种名为ajijaco的汤。Ajijaco是用土豆、玉米、奶油和肉做成的汤。味道非常不错。

Katia: It sounds delicious. Now you said that there are many different types of potatoes. What do you mean different types of potatoes?

卡蒂亚：听起来很美味。你刚才说哥伦比亚有很多不同种类的土豆。你说不同种类的土豆是什么意思？

Felipe: Yeah, what I mean is that there are different size of potatoes. You have big potatoes, you have small potatoes and they taste different also. You have sweet ones, you have sour ones and you have many different kind of taste.

菲利佩：我的意思是土豆的大小不同。有那种大土豆，也有小土豆，两种土豆的味道也有差别。味道有甜有酸，味道不同。

Katia: It really sounds delicious. What about drinks? What would you recommend as a Colombian drink?

卡蒂亚：听起来真的很好吃。那饮料呢？你会推荐哪种哥伦比亚饮料？

Felipe: Well, if you go to Colombia you should try Colombian juices because we have different kinds of fruits in the Amazon region, in the highlands and in the coastal region. So, for example, there is a fruit called guanabana. Now guanabana is a delicious fruit and I don't think there's something like that fruit somewhere else in the world so you have to try. Its taste is different, it's delicious. It's a traditional Colombian fruit.

菲利佩：如果你去哥伦比亚旅游，你应该尝尝哥伦比亚果汁，因为亚马逊地区、高地和沿海地区有很多种水果。有种水果叫刺果番荔枝。这种水果非常美味，我想世界其他地方没有这种水果，所以你应该品尝一下。刺果番荔枝的味道与众不同，非常美味。这是传统的哥伦比亚水果。

Katia: Hmm, guanabana. Definitely I'm going to try. Thank you Felipe.

卡蒂亚：嗯，刺果番荔枝。我一定会尝尝的。谢谢你，菲利佩。

Felipe: OK, you're welcome.

菲利佩：不客气。
