If you decide travel to Pasto, you can eat a
lot of food. The most representative plate in this city is CUY…that's like a rabbit,
but a little smaller. This animal was domesticated by Incas, and now the people
eat it. I was impressed just when the Cuy came to mi table, because it is
usually serve with head and feet. But when I tasted it…oh my God it is
delicious! ... I think that it tastes like chicken, but with an indescribable
feeling.
Other representative food in Pasto is El Hornado.
It’s fabulous. It’s a big roasted pig. The portion of Hornado is potatoes, pork
hide, a lot of meal and finally mote. This portion is usually accompanied with
chili peanut. Mote is a special form of corn. It’s used as a companion in a lot
of typical plates in the region. There even exists a delicious soup of Mote…I
recommend it.
Nariño has a wide variety of desserts. When I was in Pasto, I ate the popular Helado de Paila…This ice cream is made in a copper pan that is on a bowl filled with ice… you should eat it fast or ice cream will melt!. xD
