CULTURAL NIGHTS

We found out a good way to getting close to our home countries by preparing "Cultural Nights": we get together at somebody's house and one country offers its typical food, drinks and music. So far we have had Brazilian Night, Mexican Night, Peruvian Night and hopefully soon Argentine night. Very fun to share what your country has to offer.

For Mexican Night we had a lot and a lot of food: Tacos, Enchiladas, Chilaquiles, Tostadas and a lot of Tequila. It's very nice to find a cuisine with so much variety in taste, ingredients and also with so much joy for spice food like our peruvian food.

On Brazilian Night they also made a lot of food: starting of course with Caipirinhas, Feijoada which is rice and beans with pork, Pastel which is a fried meat empanada, amog other things. They tried to teach everybody how to "Samba", but it is so dificult to get it right, also they have this "Forro" music wich is very nice.

For Peruvian Night we made of course the only and unique PISCO SOUR, Papa a la huancaina, Arroz con pollo, Chicha and Mazamorra morada, also I made a power point presentation of Peru showing Machu Picchu, Colca Valley, The Amazon and Lima. All this was just before the cops arrived and threw everybody away from the apartment but the party was almost over anyways.
