Ielts speaking part 1 topics (questions and answers)

Q. What kind of new food would you like to try? [Why?] 
Answer: I have heard a lot about Indian foods, and I would really like to try 
them sometimes because, as I have heard, they are not really fatty like the other 
food. Besides, I would like to try them also because they taste really good 
because of using different kinds of spices in perfect combination, and the dish I 
would really like to try is “palak chicken curry” made with spinach and chicken. 
Q. 
Do 
you 
like 
cooking? 
[Why/Why 
not?] 
Answer: Cooking is like a great hobby to me, and I do like to cook once in a 
while as it allows me to cook my favourite dishes just the way I like them! 
Besides, I like to cook also because it allows me to be creative and to indulge in 
some “fun and play” time by getting busy in chopping, stirring and tasting. 
Finally, I like cooking because it gives me an opportunity to express my love 
and 
care 
for 
them. 
Q. 
What 
was 
the 
last 
meal 
you 
cooked? 
Answer: The last meal I cooked was a chicken parmigiana, which is one of my 
favourites, about a week ago. Of course, it took me a while to prepare the food, 

---

but it was just perfect in its taste and texture at the end of the day. 
Q. Do you prefer home-cooked food or food from restaurants? [Why?] 
Answer: While I enjoy eating at restaurants from time to time, I certainly prefer 
home-cooked foods primarily because they are usually more healthy with less 
fat and more nutritional values. Besides, eating at restaurants can be expensive. 
Finally, enjoying a home-cooked meal over dinner with family members, while 
enjoying laughs and chats with them, is way better than eating some food, being 
surrounded 
by 
some 
completely 
unknown 
faces.
