CP #4 -Mark G

I met up with Gilles the other day for lunch. It was very enjoyable! I took him to Pitteria because I wanted to show him some places he could get food around campus. As we were walking there he told me about the kind of things he ate back in his home country of the Ivory Coast. He said they eat lots of beans and rice there in addition to grilled chicken dishes. He told me that he has someone who lives in his house and cooks for his family on a regular basis. I asked him what he ate here in America and I cringed when he told me he eats a lot of McDonalds. Since he doesn't know how to cook thats something that is simple and recognizable to him. Mcdonalds by the way does not even exist in his country! We shared a very good lunch, I got a gyro and him a plate of meat skewers and pita fries. He enjoyed it very much and we got to learn more about each other. When we were done I walked him back to the CIS building and he was off to speaking class and myself a literature class.
