Omnomznomz

During my most recent trip to Rocky Point, I had the opportunity to sample some very delightful food from some of the local vendors. Though I have been to Rocky Point twice before this, I have always been wary about trusting the hygienic level of their food preparation process. After all, Mexico isn't exactly famous for "clean". (but then, it's not as though it's any different from the cockroaches at a mamak. No cockroach or dirt=not a mamak).

That reputation, doubled with my unfortunate experience with a certain taco stand (being stuck in a toilet WITH NO DOORS AND NO TOILET PAPER AND NO SOAP in the middle of the desert is no fun) has made me extremely selective with what I put in my mouth whenever I'm down there. Despite coming from a third world country with a supposedly trained stomach of steel, I was no match for Mexico. Mamak training, you have failed me.

But..but! How could I resist this?

Before:After:
FRESH clams, served with Clamato and pico de gallo and lime juice.

Fish ceviche served on a tostada. Habanero sauce on top! OMG best evar! I've always wanted to try ceviche, and man, this WOULD be worth getting the runs for lol. I went back and got another. Onry one dorrah!

And oooh, what is this?

Slicing the mango skin...
Pouring chilli flakes on it!

End result:
Mango on a stick! + Monster devouring mango.

Yummmmz...life is good where there is food and travel.
