By my reckoning in the 8 days I have been in Malawi, I have now had Chicken and Chips for lunch 6 times, with a Beef stew and a packet of biscuits making up the other two. The time has come for a bit of experimentation with my diet!
The locals eat a maize concoction called Nsima which has the consistency of cotton woll and the colour of milk - I think I will continue to swerve that, however, in the relatively swanky restaurants that are our lunchtime haunts the menu does stretch to rice or beans with your Chicken/Beef/Fish so plenty of opportunity to mix it up.
Dinner time is a more varied affair, with Maggie and Able at the guesthouse whipping up a storm each night - albeit a storm with rice as the side.
That said, I have just had a samosa brought to my desk - so there is hope!
Glad to see your acclimatising well! Any chance of some pics of you and the team?
