My favorite food
My favorite food is definitely pesto. Pesto by itself isn't a dish, composed of olive oil and chopped basil leaves it's a sauce, a condiment, and an enhancing agent. It can turn your most basic foods, for example pasta and chicken, into fabulous meals. In my experience, pesto has the availability to transform seemingly dangerous foods into delectable treats.
When I was ten years old, I was offered escargot at a restaurant in Paris. I responded as you would expect most ten year olds to, with a wrinkled nose and a definitive no. Despite my reluctance to try the escargot, my parents ordered it anyway. As the waitress neared our table, the familiar aroma filled my nose. Without a thought, I put aside my prejudice against the slimy snail, forked one, and ate it. I enjoyed it immensely. Since this experience, I've had an unwavering faith in my favorite pesto, to always be delicious.
