Menu del Día – Great Latin American Ideas

One of my favourite things about travelling in South America is the extremely cheap set lunches you can get everywhere – the Menu del Día.  Usually you get a choice between 2 entrees and 4-6 mains with the dessert and drink always set.

Here’s what I had for lunch today in Huaraz, Peru for 7 Nuevo Soles (less than $2.50).

Huge plate of vegetable and quinoa soup, fried trout with rice and potato, jelly for dessert, and juice.

Yet another thing that Australia should adopt!
