Model Answer:
 
In this busy life, it is really difficult to take some time for our entertainment on a regular basis. But, a few weeks ago, I luckily managed to squeeze some time out of my busy schedule which allowed me to enjoy a lovely dinner with my family. This was a private dinner party rather than a public one.

Of course, before attending that dinner, we actually had to use a lottery in order to decide whether we were going to an Italian restaurant or a Chinese restaurant. While I and my younger sister were hoping to go to an Italian restaurant, my wife and my younger brother were hoping to head to a Chinese restaurant. But, in the end, it was my wife and the younger brother who had the final say, and therefore, we headed to a Chinese restaurant.

By the way, it was during the weekend when we went to that Chinese restaurant, so quite naturally, we expected it to be really busy. But surprisingly, we didn’t really see that many people on that day, probably because they decided to stay at home and enjoy a very good cricket match between England and Australia.

But, whatever was the reason for which they decided not to come to that restaurant, we liked it because we didn’t have to wait at all to get our tables, and the waiters and staffs there had all the time to make us feel good and cosy. Anyway, the dinner was served to us in no time, and we took a long time to finish our dinner over some really good chat and laugh with each other. And after finishing our dinner, we all felt like we had one of the best dinners of our life.

Well, we enjoyed the dinner so much because they were cooked to perfection just the way we requested. We enjoyed it also because we were treated there like some royalties. Finally, the dinner was so much enjoyable also because we got to spend a long time there, without being bothered, to catch up with each other since we always remain busy.
