Jasmine rice always brings back good memories of family dinners. Any Chinese dish reminds me of my dad cooking for us and the conversations we’ve had over dinner.

My grandma’s tri-color cookies: She always makes them around Christmas time and it is exciting to see her bring out the tray while talking with my family and having a good time.

I like eating crepes with goat cheese because it reminds me of the time I made a new friend during a trip to Rockefeller.

Seafood: Every Christmas Eve my grandmother serves seven different types of seafood. This has been a family tradition of mine, so I always connect it with good times with my relatives.

Ice cream is a food that brings back good memories for me because while my grandma was living with my family every summer Friday we would take a walk along the shore and she would get ice cream for me afterwards.
