ANDEAN GASTRONOMY


Day 8 in Cuzco

It was time to get to know the profound Cuzco, so following Francoise Sagan ("you get to know a country by its tastes"), we went to visit a small town festivity. By lunchtime, I was brave enough as to have "Fritada de alpaca", a dish made with deep fried alpaca (the lovely andean camelid in the picture) and quinua (an andean cereal) pie for dessert.



Then, a visit to the traditional art museum, a place full textiles and pottery, where there were many rooms entirely devoted to pots where sex is realisticly shown. I must say that the erotic pots depicted most sexual practices, some of them rather imaginative!
