"Kom ons kry twee kant slaaie tussen drie van ons en deel.. diegene gevreesde woorde. Ek het 'n bietjie grap, 'n kwinkslag, nie snaaks nie regtig nie, maar 'n klein instrument debat en gesprekke te buig oor ekstremisme oor aangename vakansie-etes met karnivore. Hier weer gaan dit, Ek sê altyd vir mense wat 'okay so lank as jy dit nie gebruik om jou vleis vurk. As ons dit doen kan kry 'n paar meer vurk "Natuurlik wil ek net veel eerder dat my eie kant slaai en nie deel nie. En dit is gewoonlik wat gebeur nadat ek praat van die vleis vurk. Ek dont eet vleis en ek nie wil klein stukkies vleis wat oorgebly het van die mense spot dele van die dooie koei of dooie vis om te eet. En in Kuba, nie eens dink oor wat gaan aan in die kombuis.

Die vrugte by die ontbyt is ongelooflik, maar slaaie by 'n ete in verskeie restaurante is gewoonlik gemaak van gekerfde kool of gepekelde kool. Die heerlike groente waarvan baie gegroei in organiese stedelike tuine van die markte lyk dont om gedien te word om toeriste wat kan betaal vir duurder vleis.

"Dit klink absurd, natuurlik. Maar die hoofkelner by die Hotel Nacional gesê jy het sy hond vergiftig whiskey. Hoekom moet jy 'n hond whiskey op alle? Ek verstaan ​​nie. Hy het ook geen. Hy dink miskien want dit was 'n Duitse hond. Jy sê niks doen nie, Mnr Wormold.’ Van Graham Greene se "Ons Man in Havana’

8 gedagtes oor "Moenie eens dink oor wat gaan aan in die kombuis…

  1. Those vegetables did look good 🙂 I try not to think about what goes on in the kitchen too much. Have been in situations travelling where there was literally nothing I could eat, being offered platefuls of meat and/or fish with no vegetables at all, and I almost ground to a halt with hunger, especially when I was trying to be vegan. Sharing a salad with a bunch of meat eaters would have been luxury 🙂 What to do? Some countries you know it’s just going to be a big problem but you really want to go there so it’s a case of getting through a week or so of bread, rice and biscuits. Sometimes I live on my stash of cereal bars 🙂 The other option is a ‘veggie holidaywhere the lack of vegetarian food doesn’t become the big issue of the trip and the topic of conversation at every meal 🙂 I want to go to Africa so that’s going to be … interesting. Hoping to avoid too many ‘bush meat’ scenarios …

    • I found its surprising to see so many fresh vegetables being sold in markets (for the locals obviously) and so few in restaurants. Im really glad I visited Cuba in spite of the confusion over vegetarianism and there were always the Italian restaurants to fall back on. Another reason that ‘veggie holidays’ are good is that no one opposite you slicing into a big slab of flesh is going to say ‘so why dont you eat meat?'!

      Whereabouts in Africa do you want to go? I worked in Tanzania, East Africa and was delighted how easy it was to follow a vegetarian diet. The majority of restaurants were run by Indians families displaced from Uganda. I was invited to a party in a temple in Mwanza where a huge selection of different delicious dishes were served and they were all vegetarian…so East Africa will be no problem (or North with the couscous)…

      • Thank you … sounds great 🙂 Have no concrete plan for Africa as yet, other than wanting to see elephants !! Cuba Martin (sounds like a cocktail) was talking about Zambia. I quite fancy somewhere small like Botswana/Okavango delta … what usually happens is I have the idea rolling round my head and then something appears … like Cuba/Skyros/Berkoff happened along 🙂

  2. Well when it rained it was spectacular but I had a long time there. It pounds down on the roof and leaves and is amazing to watch. If I going on holiday I would avoid this though! In the dry season the animals congregate at the water holes so this is a thing to consider for safaris. The dry and wet season vary from region to region as does the heat. I went on fantastic safaris to the Serengeti. You could also go and see the migration of the wilderbeest..
