I would like to meet some friends who come from Hindu and like to exchange the culture and food.

Just to clear a few things up: Most Hindus come from India. The national language is Hindi. Hinduism is the religion, and adherents of Hinduism are Hindus.

sorry. I type it wrong. I mean some friends who come from India.

I was happy to see a few Hindu's poll on the religion poll. I am actually looking forward to hearing your religion voiced, just because I personally am a Christian does not mean that I don't like hearing about your religion, we do live in Hong Kong and are not all Christians and atheists - I am very interested.

There is no such thing as Hindu religion.
The world religion denotes an organized social group believing in a particular God and following his/her commands.
The word Hinduism is a creation of the white man.
The people of India follow what is known as Sanathan Dharam ( Eternal way). There is no fixed dogma.You are free to believe whatever you want.
There are no restrictions.You can pray to any one you like.
That is why you see many Indian homes, have pictures, statues of Jesus/Mary, Buddha, Ganesh Shiva etc.
