Many of the native things I saw had hand painted designs on them:
This fruit is called grenadilla. I've never had them before, and they were sooo good that I was tempted to bring some back to the States. It tastes similar to passionfruit.
This fruit is called mamón chino or rambutan. This was a big staple of what I ate there, as they were plentiful and much cheaper than they are here, in the States.
Rambutan... you ate them? They look a little creepy to me :) They appear furry. I'm guessing they are some kind of berry. The detail of your photo is amazing!
ReplyDeleteThe fruit was fascinating! I've never seen either before. One of the great things about traveling is trying the flavors of the local culture and you definately did that! Love all the photos by the way...just beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI love Rambutan.
