Different Culture

I have a friend from a differnet culture, her name is Reema. The first time that I went to her house I didn't know what to expect. First, I arrived at her house. It was a huge house, I rang the door bell and her mom answer. Her mom yelled for her that I had arrived. When her mom yelled for her it was in there native language so I had no idea what she said. At this point two of my other friends were there already. So Reema's little brother brought me to were there all were. Once he brought me down there we played a game with him. During the game he was teaching me words from there language.
After a couple hours of being there her mom told Reema to come upstairs and figure out what we were getting to have for supper. Reema told her mom that we should have pizza. Her mom called for all of us to come up and eat when the pizza had arrived. She order cheese and one of my friends asked, "why did your mom only order cheese?" She said, "because they can't have anything with meat in because of her culture." Then her mom came out what other food that she had made, it was food that her culture would eat. She asked us if anyone wanted to try it. I can't remember the names of the food that I tried. I tried three different types of food. They were all good. The last type of food that I tried wasn't us good us the first two foods I tried. Also during supper her mom played music from her culture and after supper we listened to that music for the rest of the night because all of my friends and I liked it and thought it was different.
