Sasha's Sweet 'n Savory Snacks
Bonjour,
For those still considering a trip to Morocco to visit us, the KBATs, you might be wondering what we propose to feed you while you are here.
The answer will depend, in large part, on whether you are going out for food with Bob or with Kim.
Let's take a look at some of Sasha, Kyra, Sheri and Don's culinary highlights of their Morocco visit.
The day after they arrived, I (Kim) took SKSD out to one of my favorite French patisseries, for dejeuner (fresh salads with goat cheese, smoked salmon sandwiches, etc.) et les petits gateaux.
By the end of their trip, however, Sasha had become much more adventurous and was ready to set out with Bob. So, one night, still hungry after a dinner without meat, Sasha, the fledgling vegetarian, was searching for food in Djema El-Fnaa Square. Having assured him that snails are really vegetables, Bob led Sasha to a snail stand and demonstrated his technique in fishing out the squiggly black snail from the shell.
Kyra looks pretty tempted too, doesn't she?
And here he goes...
Look at that tiny black vegetable (may need to click on the screen to blow up the picture)...
Not to be outdone, Anna joined in the feast.
Sasha ate the whole bowl (with just a bit of help from Anna and Bob).
And earlier, Sheri and Don, having already discovered the fresh o.j. in the Square, headed back for more.
The price for these and other delicious snacks? About $2 for the fancy cakes, $.30 (yes, 30 cents) for the orange juice, and $.50 for a bowl of snails. You could also buy (with Bob, only) a very fresh fish sandwich with large chunks of fish for about $2.25. Or you could go with Anna and Tommy to their favorite ice cream place and get a small dish of ice cream for about $1.25.
So who else is coming?
A bientot,
Kim
