Try not to drool on the page😋
First day of our trip we took the local advice and headed to Veloso Bar-a local favourite.
On the menu? 50 different types of Caipirinha's and the famous dish of Brazil-Coxinha's.
Low fat? Oh sure! Delicious? You betcha!
Did someone say dessert? The dessert cart was a nightly treat on the island;) (right)
Brazilian speciality-pork, pork, and oh-more pork! And of touch of greens to even this dish out. (left)
S.A. wouldn't be complete without at least of full aisle of Dulce de leche?! (bottom right)
Street popcorn in Rio covered in dulce de leche-what else? (bottom left)
Caiprinha's are free flowing in Brazil (think mojito). They are the national drink you know!
Best pizza ever! (Ilha Grande, Brazil)
Do you see the excitement?! Brazilian Steak house/BBQ. With 26 kinds of meat, who can complain?
Argentinean buses-what's not to love?! When they serve you Whisky, beer and champagne before you even get outta the first town? Now that's serve! The breakfast? hmm, I added the fruit dish from dinner to wash down all the breaded & sugared items. Yikes!
Ahh Buenos Aires...
San Telmo market's fresh squeezed OJ, homemade pizza & local brewed beer-mmm so fresh...
but let's not forget the numerous trips to the supermarcado for the best selections in Buenos Aires?!
Steaks and a bottle of wine for $20? What's not to love about Argentina??? (left)
Breakfast-a challenge for the gluten intolerant. Comes with a side of-you guesses it-dulce de leche! (right)
Microbrew stop on our 25km bike trip with a side of homemade empanadas.
Camping in Argentina is easy with $5 steaks and $2 wine;)
Enjoying all Mendoza has to offer.
What goes best with Mendoza wines? Why steak and olives of course!
Pap? Like pop?? This sugary drink didn't get a pass. (top)
Chilean specialties-fries stacked with shredded beef, grave & top with a fried egg. Chilean version of poutine?
Best handmade empanadas in Valpo at Famosa.
Mexican in Santiago? Might I add it was delicious!
Shawn's favourite treat. Our deal? For every piece of leather I bought in Argentina, Shawn got to buy himself an ice cream. I think he still outnumbered me...
Top 25 Ice Cream parlours in the world-this is #17. (right)
Mall ice cream in a massage chair-oh yeah! (top left)
Acai-Brazilean version of ice cream. Soooo good! (top right)
Called completos. Chile is famous for its hotdogs (and hamburgers) with 'the works.'

Lovin' the selection at the Bangkok markets.
The night markets of Chiang Mai, Thailand are the best places to find excellent, cheap, Thai delicacies.
Khao Soi. The most delicious dish in Thailand.
A curry coconut base with stewed chicken or beef, flat egg noodles, and topped with crispy noodles, cilantro, onions and pickled stuff...incredible!
Street food. Fried naan topped with banana, honey and chocolate sauce. Deadly!
