their favorite food is

[keannu]

[FONT=&#48148]I meet many foreign customers and vendors. so I have many chances to have dinner with them.
They try to taste many Korean foods, such as Bibimbap and Kimchijjigae. But their favorite food is, needless to say, Korean Barbecue.[/FONT]

Is the underlined correct?

Perhaps:

They try many Korean foods, such as Biblimbap and Kimchijjigae. But their favorite is Korean barbecue.

It is spelt "bibimbap".

I have been told by the teachers (ems I think) once that the name of foreign food is not capitalized.

Is the underlined correct?

I would not capitalise barbecue, but it is otherwise fine.

Keannu, a phrase I would never use is needless to say. (If it's needless to say don't bother saying it.)

There should not be a full stop after "vendors" in your opening sentence.

Do you use both the spellings? It seems that "barbeque" is the old form and BBQ is its acronym.

barbecue/ barbeque(BBQ)

 

[emsr2d2]

I use "barbecue" and "BBQ" but not "barbeque". I'm not sure why, other than the fact that the last three letters of "barbeque" look like the Spanish word "que" which would make me pronounce the whole word "bar-buh-keh"!

Do you use both [STRIKE][/STRIKE] spellings? It seems that "barbeque" is the old form and BBQ is its acronym.

barbecue/ barbeque(BBQ)

I'm pretty sure I only use one form.

BBQ is not really an acronym; it's an abbreviation.

(There's a barbecue place right across the street from me. I am reminded of the spelling every once in a while.)

(I think both spellings are in use, but the tendency is to choose one and stick with it.)

Old form? Where did you hear that? The correct spelling is barbecue.

Also, BBQ is not an acronym but an abbreviated written form of barbecue.
