Oh, the food, glorious food, of Sri Lanka - where to begin its rhapsodic praises…?!
Boiled peanuts and corn by the side of the road,
Hoppers  (a bowl-shaped cross between a crepe and the spongey Ethiopian bread whose name I do not remember) with dahl and a thin hot curry-ish sauce,
Wood apple and jackfruit curries with red rice, accompanied by sides of ground ginger, lime pickles, ground coriander leaves (or something),
kotthu roti,
jackfruit, ramboyan, mangosteen…
I am in heaven and have not eaten better this whole trip. Still woefully short on the fresh vegetable (greens, really) front though, and I think I will eat kale salad for at least a month when I get home!!!
All but impossible to imagine that I will soon be in San Francisco, and I’m surprised to feel some resistance to it. Still, there are many people I look forward to seeing, and it might be nice to put my pack down for a while…<3
