Local lunch, Tanzania 08-2013

During the safari, every lunch was planned to either be at our tented camp or a (less exciting) packed lunch for the road. One day I asked the driver Freddie if there was anywhere to have local food for lunch. He was quite happy to arrange a nice "local lunch" which was cheap and included a walking tour of the village. This took place just after a morning tour at Lake Manyara National Park.

It was an incredibly cheap lunch with a large amount of food for us 2 guests, Freddie and our tour guide and also the mama cook herself. Everything was cooked over wood fire in large pots and the variety was large. It included lots of vegetables, some fish and an excellent pulao rice dish.

This was probably my favourite meal in the entire safari.
