breakfast of champions



costs just a buck. I'm not talking a minuature box of rice krispies u cut open and pour in 1/2 a cup of milk. Buzzing restaurant, serving at least 100 and more waiting outside to get in. I pont to something that looks tasty, and I am rewarded with a huge bowl of soup with a huge chunk of fish at the bottom.

All these street vendors with tasty snacks for around half a buck. Grabbed a sandwich with little bits of fried mystery and veggies on French bread, a little styrofoam take awy box of corn and dried fish, with something crunchy and sweet like corn-flakes as a topping, ice coffee with condensed milk available from little old ladies on most busy intersections. or go to one of the big corporate looking chains, like highland coffee and pay the $3 for a latte it would cost at home, your choice.

if you get it on the street, you will be sitting on a chair that would fit a child in kindergarten. when they see a big westerner like me, they will often double of on the flimsy chairs. at fresh squeezed juice places, recycled water bottles of yummy carrot juice or any other of a dozen varieties are tempting. and now I'm having gelatto in order to avoid walking in front of a wall of moving traffic.
