I had some black and some white pudding once while in Ireland, boy that was tasty. I've eaten stewed offal quite a few times, I could still tell what the bits were none of the ground up stuff.

I heard there was a nice Rat resturant in China..yum.. haha.. farmed Dog is also on many menus there...but I not game to try. I'd be more disturbed if someone ate my pet chickens.

Rock,

I saw both dog and rat in the markets in Hanoi, but like you I didn't go for it.

When I was in China on one occasion I had to eat Scorpian, as I would have offended my hosts if I didn't, since it is considered a delicacy and only provided as an honour; I found it to be quite a nutty taste, but fortunately, it was rationed out and I wasn't offered a second round of it.

Kind regards,

Hey guys, what about food that boost your energy level before/after ride?

I would say pasta and potatoes give me the real energy booster before ride and of course energy drinks for recovery after ride. What say you??

Pasta and rice with anything the night before or 3 hours before a ride is good. Energy drinks during ride. and a big fat juicey recovery steak with all the trimmings afterwards after a long ride !!!
The exotic delicacies are optional.

Second course: Saltimbocca alla Romana (veal, made in a white wine sauce with small pieces of prosciutto cooked on top)

Vegetable side dish: Broccoletti ripassati (Roman broccoli - smaller and more bitter than other types, made in a saucepan with butter and chili)

A good red wine, of course, preferably a Southern one... Nero d'Avola or a Primitivo.

Of course, a small, light and airy tiramisu' for desert.

Hhhhmmmm, this is a usual Sunday lunch for me. Then I wonder why I cannot climb with the best of 'em...
Hey Pete, how many K's do you need to ride to burn that lot off ?

BTW Italian foood quite popular in Sydney - large italian community here.

Rock,

We are very lucky. In some respects we have better food than the originals, largely because of the quality of the ingredients.

Kind regards,
