× Yes, there is some traditional Chinese cakes called rice cakes and mooncakes.
✓ Yes, there are some traditional Chinese cakes called rice cakes and mooncakes.
The subject 'cakes' is plural, so the verb should be 'are' instead of 'is' to agree in number. 'Some' indicates plural, so 'are' is the correct form of the verb 'to be' here.
× However, I think they are less well known in European countries like French or the UK.
✓ However, I think they are less well known in European countries like France or the UK.
'French' is an adjective or a demonym, but here a country name is needed. The correct country name is 'France' to match 'European countries'.
× However, as I grew older, I stopped eating such sweet foods because I developed a preference for alcoholic.
✓ However, as I grew older, I stopped eating such sweet foods because I developed a preference for alcoholic drinks.
The word 'alcoholic' is an adjective and needs a noun to modify. Adding 'drinks' completes the phrase and makes the sentence grammatically correct.
× However, I sometimes drink a glass of milk, especially after oily cuisine like milk and fish, to refresh my mind.
✓ However, I sometimes drink a glass of milk, especially after oily cuisine like meat and fish, to refresh my mind.
'Milk' is not a type of cuisine. The intended meaning is likely 'meat', which is a common oily cuisine. Using 'milk' here is incorrect as a prepositional object.
