The food sounds very good! Some suggestions on style:
ResponderEliminar- Try to avoid repetition of the word "very." Instead, either omit it, or use other words like "quite varied," "widely known to all," or "closely related."
- The second sentence should read "It highlights".
How common is vegetarianism/ veganism in Spain? For university students on a low budget, would you say it is difficult to find healthy vegetarian options, or not so much?
ResponderEliminarA quick note: "products of big quality" should be rephrased as "high-quality products"

I find it really interesting that the 'tapas' or 'tapear' is the highlight of the meals in León. You guys must be full with eating tapas by the time the main dish comes to the table.
ResponderEliminarSome notes on your grammar:
"That is very related with the meat, lamb, pig and all products of big quality that can cook of a lot of forms"
Change that to: 'That is related to the meats like lamb and pork, and all other high quality products that can be cooked in many forms'
About vegetarianism, there is only a vegetarian restaurant in León, although you can ask for vegetarian food in other restaurants.
ResponderEliminarin our university, they offer us daily menu but they offer too different posibilities that you can choose.
so i think it is no difficult to eat if you are vegetarian
I love hearing about the food in Spain, because it sounds very unique and full of tradition. Could you say more about some of the dishes that you listed? Which are most popular, and which do you enjoy the most?
ResponderEliminarWow the food in Leon sounds very good! I'd like to learn more about the food people like to eat in Leon. For example, what meals are typically prepared for special holidays or celebrations like Christmas.
ResponderEliminarOne comment on grammar: Instead of saying "There is a big variety of fruits and cheeses..." it would be better to say "There is a large variety of fruits and cheeses."
I look forward to reading more of your blog entries.
