Topic: Describe a small business you want to start.

I'd like to start a business of selling coffee and street food because I'm a glutton. There are lot of delicious street food in Hong Kong and I'd like to fuse them with foreign street food. Though I don't know if these food can match well with coffee. But I will try. I will not start this business in near future because I don't have enough money to set it up and most importantly, I have other jobs I'm working on and hope to accomplish first. During the time when I am earning money, I practise my cooking skills. I've decided to join cooking classes after the pandemic.

(1) Do you mean you like eating? A glutton not only eats, but eat a lot.
(2) I presume you are talking about many types of foods.

I'd like to start a business of selling coffee and street food because I'm a glutton.* There are a lot of delicious street foods in Hong Kong and I'd like to sell them along with foreign street food. I don't know if these foods can match well with coffee, but I will try. I will not start this business in the near future because I don't have enough money to set it up and most importantly, I have other jobs I'm working on and hope to get them done first. During the time when I am earning money, I will practise my cooking skills. I've decided to take cooking classes after the pandemic is over.

*I don't get the connection. Just because you like to eat that doesn't mean you like to cook. Nor does it mean you want to start a business.

Try Italian.

Maybe I should add, "I can eat my food if I cook well. And let others know these good food.":lol:

I am not sure what you mean by the second sentence. I think maybe you mean to say you like to talk about what a good cook you are.

The "of" in the opening sentence should not be there.

I'd like to start a business selling coffee and street food ...

If I mix seasonings of different countries into the food, can I use the word "fuse"?

You can, but I like "mix" better.

 

[emsr2d2]

A mixture of different cuisines is usually referred to as "fusion".

Although you can use "fuse" (or "fusion") I still prefer "mix" (or "mixture"). However, you should do what you want to do.

Your customers won't care what you call it if they like the food.
