Begin your letter as follows: Dear Sir or Madam, Model Answer 1: Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing to share my delightful dining experience at a local restaurant and to recommend it to your readers. The exceptional meal my family and I enjoyed at the restaurant called Supreme Spice left us thoroughly impressed, and I believe it deserves recognition. Our visit to the Supreme Spice, located in the heart of our city, proved to be an extraordinary culinary journey. From the moment we entered, the warm and inviting ambience created a pleasant and welcoming atmosphere. The attentive and knowledgeable staff further enhanced our dining experience, providing impeccable service throughout the evening. The highlight of our meal was undoubtedly the exquisite dishes prepared by the talented chef. We savoured a wide array of flavours, each dish crafted with utmost precision and creativity. The freshness of the ingredients was evident, and the presentation was artful, stimulating both our visual and gustatory senses. From the mouthwatering appetizers to the delectable main courses and indulgent desserts, every bite was a revelation. What sets Supreme Spice apart is its commitment to sourcing locally and supporting sustainable ingredients. Their dedication to using organic and seasonal ingredients showcased their passion for quality and their contribution to the local community. I wholeheartedly recommend the restaurant to your readers. The impeccable service, exquisite cuisine, and commitment to sustainability make it a dining destination worth experiencing. Yours faithfully, Walter Book Model Answer 2: Dear Sir or Madam, I seldom miss reading your daily newspaper because it publishes many interesting and engaging local news, and today, I would like to take this opportunity to request you to publish one such local news which, I thought, could benefit the food lovers of our great city. Well, on second thought, it is more like a review of a restaurant, not news, that I would like you to publish. I, along with my family, visited this restaurant called "Pinewood Food" about a week ago, at night, to enjoy some local dishes, but then actually ended up having a dinner that included a generous buffet and drinks, and that too at a very affordable price! In fact, the buffet cost us just a little over half the price of the dinner dishes that we were planning to eat! Moreover, the heavenly taste of the foods told me that they were cooked with utmost care! On top of that, the restaurant also had a very friendly and homely environment to make its customers feel very comfortable. And because of these reasons, I thought that the restaurant was definitely worth visiting. I hope you would publish a review of the restaurant soon. Yours faithfully, Peter Moore
