Adventures in Food: Nicaragua

 

{fresa limonada}

 

I feel like we ate heaps of Nicaraguan food but I only have five foods to show you. As with Guatemala we preferred a local breakfast to pancakes or toast and jam. Maybe that's to blame for me feeling that I ate like a Nica. Above is a fresh strawberry lemonade- just divine.

 

{canelle swirl pastry - it was almost a brioche base with a crispy cinnamon topping} 

 

{quesillos - tortilla with melted cheese, served with tangy onions}

 

 {gallo pinto - Nica breakfast}

 

Always with the rice and beans, which was oddly slightly crunchy and always delicious.

 

{tiste - toasted corn drink}

 

Emmy you would love this! It doesn't look appetising but tastes like a cold (slightly gritty) chai! Yum!
