Mi almuerzo primero


My first task in Lima was to telephone Lucia and when you cant point or gesture this is very difficult. Its also very difficult when the word this morning, also means tomorrow and the day after tomorrow- "manana"!

Lucia gave me a guided tour of Miraflores and in the supermercado showed me all the food varieties- it is staggering and all fresh and delicious. A good snack is tamal, dried ground corn normally with chicken wrapped in banana or corn leaves. Its a favourite from the north. It had to be accompanied with an Inca Kola- the mother of all pops- imagine tizer meets iron bru!
