Definitely tea. I went to Aruba on vacation recently, and I was staying at a hotel and they didn’t have any good green tea. I really missed it in the mornings.

I absolutely love pasta, and I try and eat it whenever I can, so I would find it really difficult to, to live without pasta. Pasta and pesto is my favorite meal, and I have it at least twice a week, usually when my husband’s away because he’s always telling me not to eat so much pasta.

Yes, uh, pretty often. My wife’s from Asia, from Indonesia, so we often, we often eat hot food. Um, I love hot food, uh, curries, any Indonesian food. I also love Thai food, like a good green curry.

I guess, like a lot of people, I tend to eat chocolate in that situation – chocolate or ice cream, maybe. Definitely something sweet.

Only caffeine, actually which I didn’t use to be, I used to drink a lot of coffee, but a few years ago I started noticing that it was, it was affecting me pretty badly when I drank coffee. I was getting headaches and, uh, I’ve never been tested for it, but, uh, I’ve stopped drinking caffeine – caffeine in coffee – and I think, I think I feel better.

I like spicy ones, and I like them with meat, so maybe pepperoni. That’s what I always end up ordering in an Italian restaurant.

I With me today I have Marianna Leivaditaki, head chef of the Morito restaurant in London. Marianna, what was your favorite food when you were a child?

M Um, well, at home we ate a funny mixture because of my parents. Um, fresh fish, bacon and eggs for breakfast on Sundays, and traditional apple pies. But my favorite was fish. We ate fish every day, which my dad caught. In fact, my dad still goes fishing every night!

I Wow!

M Yeah, we were really lucky because not all families could do that – could eat fish every day. Even on an island, fish is expensive, unfortunately.

I Did your dad catch fish for the family or for the restaurant?

M For both. Um, except for lobsters. When he caught a lobster, he never sold it; it was always for us. We boiled it and ate it with lemon and olive oil. You don’t need anything except lemon and olive oil when fish and seafood is really fresh. That’s how I cook lobsters nowadays in the restaurant, in Morito.

I Were you interested in cooking when you were a child?

M Oh yes. I spent every evening in our restaurant, and instead of playing with the other children, I usually helped in the kitchen. I wrote down recipes which I wanted to cook for the family in a small blue notebook.

I So your love of food and cooking came from your parents?

M From my parents and also from my aunt, and from many inspiring ladies who surrounded me when I was growing up. My aunt, Thia Koula, had animals, a garden, olive trees, and grapes. In the summer, I often spent all day with her. She knew everything about wild food in Crete. She only ate what she had grown or found or made herself. Such a beautiful way to eat.

I Did you ever eat out as a child?

M Never in the evening, um, because our restaurant was open for dinner seven days a week, but occasionally my mum used to buy me and my brother souvlaki for lunch, a sort of Greek sandwich with pita bread. Inside it has pork, tomato, red onion, and lots of thick yogurt.

I So did you always want to be a chef, to have your own restaurant?

M No, not at all. I wanted to be a psychologist, and when I was 18, I came to the UK to study at Kent University. Then I decided I didn’t want to be a psychologist after all, and I went traveling for a bit – I’d saved some money at university because I worked in the evenings. I went all around southern Europe and also to South America, to Ecuador. I tried all sorts of different dishes and fell in love with food again, so I went back to Crete and worked in our family restaurant for two years.

I Why did you come back to the UK?

M Well, I wanted to continue working as a chef, but I needed a bigger challenge. And when I was a student in the UK and I missed good food, I used to save money and go to London to have dinner in a restaurant called Moro. It wasn’t Greek food, but it was Mediterranean, Spanish, North African, and I loved it. So when I came back to London, I went to Moro and I said, “I want a job” – and they gave me one.

I And what happened then?

M Well, really slowly, through hard work, and after seven years, I became head chef. It was magic. And then the owners of Moro, Samantha and Samuel Clark, suggested that I help them open Morito.

I How is Morito different from Moro?

M It’s the same inspiration, and um, many of the dishes are similar, but because I run the kitchen, I have been able to have more Cretan dishes on the menu – dishes from my childhood. This week, for example, I’m making ntakos, a Cretan salad made with fresh goat’s cheese, tomato, and bread.

I Do you go back to Crete much?

M Yes, I go to Crete maybe four or five times a year. My family’s restaurant is closed now, but I go out for lunch with my friends, the people I miss when I’m in London. Food comes, and we share everything. We always order too much, and by the end of it we feel incredibly full.

I Well, Marianna, it's been great talking with you, and thanks for coming in.

M Thank you very much for having me.

2 This week, for example, I’m making ntakos, a Cretan salad...

3 I go to Crete maybe four or five times a year.

Family life is changing all over the world, and it’s not just the structure of the family, but also its habits. The results of several recent American surveys showed some surprising statistics.

69% of families have married parents.

23% are single-parent families. Only 4% of the single parents are men.

21% of families have one child, 41% have two, and 38% have three or more.

40% of families have stepchildren.

On average, women get married at 27 and men at 29.

40% of families eat together fewer than three times a week, and 10% never eat at the same time.

They go on vacation together as a family seven days a year.

An estimated 5% of people have brothers or sisters who they never speak to or contact.

60% of parents say chores, discipline, and family activities are shared equally in homes with two full-time working parents. The average family has six arguments each day and the most common cause is children refusing to clean their messy bedrooms or complaining about food.

So what are you going to do next year, Adam? Are you going to go to college? Adam? Can you hear me?

B Sorry, Grandma. What did you say?

A I said, are you going to go to college next year?

B No, Grandma. I’ve already told you like 100 times. I’m not going to go to college. I’m going to look for a job. I need to earn some money.

A All right, dear, you don’t need to shout. I can hear perfectly well, thank you. What time is it?

B Ten to three. I’ll get you some coffee.

A Oh, thank you. That’d be nice.

Bye. See you tomorrow.

B Bye. Hey, what do you mean tomorrow? Aren’t you coming back tonight?

A No, I told you about it yesterday. I’m going to a party at Katie’s. I’m staying overnight there.

B Who else is going?

A Oh, just the usual crowd. You don’t know any of them.

B Well, make sure you don’t go to bed too late. And don’t forget to…

A Bye!

B Where’s your coat? You can’t go out like that. It’s going to be cold tonight!

A Bye!

Can I use your car tonight?

B No, you can’t.

A You said you didn’t need it. Why can’t I borrow it?

B Because you won’t take care of it. You’ll drive too fast.

A I won’t. I promise I’ll drive really slowly. I’ll be really careful.

B Oh, all right.

A Thanks. See you.

Well, I can remember one terrible thing I did to my brother when we were teenagers – I have a twin brother. Um, so we used to fight and argue a lot, as…as kids and teenagers. And one time, when we were about 15, we were fighting, arguing – we shared a bedroom, so we were in our room, um, fighting each other, and I accidentally stabbed him in the hand with a pen that I was holding in my hand. And it was, it was a total accident, and I was holding it and I was kind of threatening him, but I didn’t really mean to, to stab him, obviously, um, but I did, and I was absolutely horrified at what I’d done. And of course, he, my brother, he looked down at his hand, with this blood coming out from where I’d stabbed him, and he looked up at me, and he said, “I’m going to tell Mom!”, which sort of made me laugh because, you know, we were both 15 at the time, and it was a very childish thing to say. And he ran downstairs to tell our mom, and I was absolutely terrified that she was going to be really angry with me. Which she was, of course. But, um, he was fine, by the way, it was a very small wound. He didn’t have to go to the hospital or anything; it was absolutely fine, but, um, he still now, this is, you know, we’re in our late forties now, so this is thirty years ago, but he still sometimes tells people, when we meet them, about when I stabbed him. But yeah, it wasn’t a very nice thing to do to him!

Well, my sister was four years older than me. She still is, actually. Um, I remember once when I was about ten years old, I had a pet, a bird. Um, it was a small green parrot named Charlie, and I really loved him. He lived in a cage, but I sometimes let him out to fly around the house, you know, so, so he could have some freedom. And one day, I was in my bedroom and I let him out, but then something happened – I can’t remember what and I forgot about him for a, for a while, and then suddenly I couldn’t see him anymore. And, well, I looked everywhere for him, I looked all over the house and I couldn’t find him anywhere. Oh, I cried and I cried because I was sure that he had flown out of the window. And my parents started to help me because they felt awful about it as well. And just when I was completely hysterical, my sister admitted that, in reality, she had hidden him: she had shut him inside a cupboard. Can you believe that? Well, she opened the cupboard and poor Charlie was there; he was so frightened, but we were all really relieved to find him. My sister was so horrible that day. Of course, now we get along really well, but I still remember what she did to poor Charlie, and sometimes when she comes to see me, I hide her car keys or her purse or something just to remind her of it. Is that bad?

J My name’s Jenny Zielinski. And New York is my city. I live here and I work for a magazine, NewYork 24seven.

R My name’s Rob Walker. I’m a writer on NewYork 24seven. You can probably tell from my accent that I’m not actually from New York. I’m British, and I came over to the States a few months ago.

J I met Rob in London, when I was visiting the UK on a work trip. He was writing for the London edition of 24seven. We got along well right away. I really liked him.

R So why am I in New York? Because of Jenny, of course. When they gave me the opportunity to work here for a month, I took it immediately. It gave us the chance to get to know each other better. When they offered me a permanent job, I couldn’t believe it!

J I helped Rob find an apartment. And now here we are. Together in New York. I’m so happy. I just hope Rob’s happy here, too.

R I really loved living in London. A lot of my friends and family are there, so of course I still miss it. But New York’s a fantastic city. I’ve got a great job, and Jenny’s here, too.

J Things are changing pretty fast in the office. We have a new boss, Don Taylor. And things are changing in my personal life, too. This evening’s kind of important. I’m taking Rob to meet my parents for the very first time. I just hope it goes well!

J I can’t believe we got here so late.

R I’m sorry, Jenny. I had to finish that article for Don.

J Don’t forget the chocolates.

R OK…Oh no!

J I don’t believe it. Don’t tell me you forgot them?

R I think they’re still on my desk.

J You’re kidding.

R You know what my desk’s like.

J Yeah, it’s a complete mess. Why don’t you ever tidy it?

R We could go and buy some more.

J How can we get some more? We’re already late!…Hi there!

H You made it!

J Sorry we’re late. So, this is my mom and dad, Harry and Sally. And this, of course, is Rob.

R Hello.

S It’s so nice to meet you at last.

H Yes, Jenny’s finally decided to introduce you to us.

S Come in, come in!

J Mom, I’m really sorry – we bought you some chocolates, but we left them at the office.

S What a pity. Never mind.

H Yeah, don’t worry about it. We know what a busy young woman you are. And your mom has made way too much food for this evening anyway.

S Oh, Harry.

J But I also have some good news.

S Really? What’s that?

J Well, you know we have a new boss? He’s still new to the job and needs support, so today he made me the managing editor of the magazine.

S So you’ve got a promotion? How fantastic!

H That’s great news! Hey, does that mean Jenny’s going to be your boss, Rob?

R Uh…yes, I guess so.

J Well, not exactly. I’m a manager, but I’m not Rob’s manager.

S Let’s go and have dinner.

J What a great idea!

1J Don’t forget the chocolates.

R OK. Oh no!

J I don’t believe it. Don’t tell me you forgot them?

R I think they’re still on my desk.

J You’re kidding.

2J Mom, I’m really sorry – we bought you some chocolates, but we left them at the office.

S What a pity. Never mind.

3J But I also have some good news.

S Really? What’s that?

4S So you’ve got a promotion? How fantastic!

H That’s great news!

5S Let’s go and have dinner.

J What a great idea!

H You know, our Jenny has done incredibly well, Rob. She’s the first member of our family to study at Harvard. She’s a very capable and ambitious young woman.

J Oh, Dad.

R No, it’s true, Jenny.

H And what about you, Rob? How do you see your career? Do you see yourself going into management?

R Me? No. Not really. I’m more of a…a writer.

H Really? What kind of things do you write?

R Oh, you know, interviews, reviews…things like that…and I’m doing a lot of work for the online magazine.

J Rob’s a very talented writer, Dad. He’s very creative.

H That’s great, but being creative doesn’t always pay the bills.

J You know, my dad’s a very keen photographer. He took all of these photos.

H Oh, Rob won’t be interested in them.

R But I am interested. I mean, I like photography. And I think I recognize some of these people.

H That’s because most of them are of Jenny.

R But there are some great jazz musicians, too.…That’s Miles Davis…and isn’t that John Coltrane? And that’s Wynton Marsalis.

H You know about Wynton Marsalis?

R Know about him? I’ve interviewed him!

H How incredible! I love that guy. He’s a hero of mine.

R Well, he’s a really nice guy. I spent a whole day with him, chatting and watching him rehearse.

H Really? I want to hear all about it.

S Have a cookie, Rob.

H Go ahead, son! Sally makes the best cookies in New York!

1 How do you see your career?

2 Not really. I’m more of a writer.

3 Oh, you know, interviews, reviews, things like that…

4 I mean, I like photography.

5 That’s because most of them are of Jenny.

6 How incredible!

7 Well, he’s a really nice guy.
