Apres ski snacks in the US |
|
A nacho plate is always a safe bet, but the "downside" is that you need a lot of beer with it.
Pizza is certainly the more heavier stuff, but the good thing is that you can skip dinner and just continue with beers.
Hot Dog a la American size...... downside is that you need new larger pants after to many of these.
Or just skip the snacks and go for a bucket of beer..........

Mexican delights |
|
Mexican Viagra - some love it, some hate it, some need it, some don't need it... You'll find the best in Cabo.
Some like it hot, some like it hotter and some like it super hot and there is a hot sauce for every one. We like the Habanera Cuacamcha, which one do you like?

Wow, we were so wrong.... |
|
Tequila doesn't need to taste like gazoline...... If you try the right stuff it can actually be pretty OK. After a tasting session at the Tequila Museum in Cabo, we can recommend the following: Patron, Jose Cuervo 25 year, Don Eduardo and Milagro.
Apparently is this one good - $500 per bottle!!!! We did not try it.
We always believed that a taco is served in a hard shell, but we were so wrong. Can't find, so far, a single hard shell taco in Mexico. It's all served in a tortilla bread and it's so good.
Taco the Mexican way
You must also try a Molcajetes, it's brilliant and in particular the arrachera version. The Taco palace in Cabo is a good place to try it.
Molcajetes at the Taco Palca, Cabo San Lucas, Mexico
We were though right about Corona and it taste so much better in the heat in Mexico. Two for one is also a good concept.
A bucket of Corona is never wrong in Mexico....
The Corona girls are also another reason to have a Corona or two....

Water of life and beach snack |
|
Is this the best drink in the world??????? Is this also the best coffee beans in the world???????
From high up in the Bolivian mountains and roasted to perfection, it's so good and hard to beat.
Most likely the best beach snack ever. Freshly from the Caribbean ocean and prepared right on the beach - it's heaven. Life is tough.

Meat lovers heaven |
|
Argentinean beef, sooo good, sooo tender and sooo big. It's for sure meat lovers heaven and nothing for vegetarians. There are Parilla's everywhere serving delicious meat. If you are in Mendoza, stop by the Azafran restaurant. It's really spectacular.
500gr of pure Argentinean beef, so good and so big.
Just to big and this is what's left for the doggy bag.........
For whatever reason, Bariloche also seems to be the chocolate center in Argentina. A lot of small chocolate factories and a chocolate store in each street corner. It also taste fantastic and you MUST try it unless you are on a diet - we weren't.
Try this one at Fanglio with a double espresso. We'll guarantee that you be back the next day.
A family barbeque in Bolivia must be the best. It's for sure not a quick 1 hour BBQ and it's spectacular. Our introduction to a proper Bolivian BBQ was at the Gerke family in La Paz. Fantastic and Many Thanks for the extreme hospitality.
A perfect skiing day always includes a good apres ski. 40cm of powder snow in El Colorado finished off with a few Cristal - that's a perfect skiing day. Two for the price of one is also an appreciated concept.

Swedish gourmet meal |
|
"Tunnbrods rulle" - the best unknown gourmet food in Sweden. It's good in the morning, great for lunch, brilliant for dinner and fantastic at 3pm in the morning..... The best though is to go for the double hot dog version with shrimp sallad, muummmm.
It took us about 35 minutes to have one after we entered Sweden.

In Tartiflette we trust |
|
The French cuisine is world famous and outstanding, We certainly have the highest benchmark and in particular the famous Tartiflette, in which we trust.
What fine cuisine around the world can compete with this. Is it the infamous schnitzel on the German autobahn, the "red sausage" in Denmark, the seal eye in Greenland, the fermented shark in Iceland, or....????
