food!


Went with a friend to a fruit farm today on Basse Terre, the western 'side' of the island. (Guadeloupe is actually two islands connected by bridges) It's green and lush over there, with banana plantations, lots of sugar cane, the forest, and the volcano.
Here are some of the fruits we got to take home from the fruit plantation. You get a bag of fruit, and an ice cold fruit drink made from the fruit on the farm...I had white guave juice....mmmmmmmmmmm! Incredible. I can't wait to bring visiting friends. It's a nice slice of life on this island.

Super big food: we are not alone



Allow me to contradict my latest post just a bit, for I have found the supersize in Guadeloupe.
The roadside burger stand that serves up this tasty treat is called 'Big Mamma' En Francais: Big Mamman.

The funniest thing about this is that on the awning in front of the stand it says 'Cooking Light'
There is nothing light about a sandwich that is about four times the size of a CD. Yep. True. See picture.

I ate the entire thing.
