"I am happy to know that I will finally be able to meet your mother, Jake, you talk about her so much that I was really curious to meet her."
"She is also curious to meet you, after all, I also talk a lot about you to my mother, you can expect to eat there at my house the best food you have ever eaten in Miami."
"I know, you told me that your mom has a restaurant that is very popular here in Miami, I wanted to go to her restaurant sometime."
"My mom really has a restaurant and she cooks very well, but I will also help to prepare this dinner and you will know about my culinary skills."
"I didn't know you knew how to cook, of course, it must have been your mother who taught you how to cook."
