Guatemalan Cuisine

Breakfast and Dinner at the Full Moon Cafe
We ate breakfast and dinner everyday at the 'Full Moon Cafe' in San Martin.  It is about a twenty minute walk from our hotel, owned by Mark (an American).  Mark's food was delicious.  He made us both traditional Guatemalan food as well as American food.  A traditional Guatemalan breakfast consists of rice, black beans and a number of local fruits.

Lunch in Naranjito
We ate lunch everyday in the village of Naranjito.  These meals (often taking a number of days to prepare) were made by many of the women of the village.  Some of these women lived in the homes where we were building latrines.  Everyday they made us homemade corn tortillas, fruit juice (or 'Fresco') from the fruits that grow in the village and often served us local vegetables that we had never heard of.

POLLO CAMPERO
This is Guatemala's most popular fast food restaurant.  They serve fried chicken, pizza, flan in a cup and a number of other seemingly unrelated food items.  This particular Pollo Campero was protected by a guard armed with a shotgun.  Though not even he could protect Rob from getting sick from eating here.
