[@ayngelina]

Thanks so much for taking the time to write a comment fellow Canuck! About Ecuadorian food I choose dishes that I know I will like or think I will like based onw hat is in them. You rarely see me eat dessert because I just don't like it so unless it's some traditional Indigenous dish I pass. But I avoid all the tourist spots and international food in Ecuador because I know it's going to be mediocre. There are enough gringo websites, Facebook groups and KZbin channels that cover it, my goal is to get people out of their comfort zone and into Ecuadorian owned small businesses. I did make a dedicated video about Bolon de Tere In Guayaquil only because it's so controversial at $11 for a terrible version of street food. But I don't censor the videos, I just really love the places we go. In an upcoming video in Little India in Malaysia you will see that I didn't love a sweet snack that I tried nor did I love lunch - it was good but not as great as what I had in India - but even then when dishes move to a new country they need to adapt to local tastes so it wasn't the fault of the restaurant but my expectations.

I think because I've spent so much time in Latin America none of the flavours really surprise me unless I'm trying Indigenous fermented food.

I will say this, last night I realized that two of the common herbs served in dishes in Vietnam I absolutely detest. I'm trying to find the names of them so I can share on camera.

AJI, is the name for a hot sauce but it varies region by region. In the coast it tends to be hotter and is usually a pickled onion and vegetable base. In the Andes it is fruitier, made with tree tomato and usually not as hot. It does add spice but also an acidic element that seasons food. The tree tomato version is my favourite in the world, but it's also so interesting to travel and see how people change it around the country. Another great one is made with passionfruit aka maracuya.

el 21/09/2024 estuve en la Ciudad de Latacunga con mis padres para disfrutar de unas deliciosas "cascaritas" y mi experiencia fué pésima, deplorable, realmente decepcionante y muy horrible., busqué como referencia el sector más ideal para probar las mejores "cascaritas" de Latacunga y terminé ingresando a un "restaurante" dónde desde su dueña y sus empleadas nos brindaron una horrible atención, comenzando desde el precio donde un plato de cascaritas tenia un precio de $8,50 el plato más "completo"... cuándo le sirvieron a mi madre el primer plato de cascatitas fué espantoso ver la presentación, le dieron en un plato desechable demasiado pequeño para un precio de $8,50 dólares; con 3 pedazos de carne, un poquito de mote, dos papas, ensalada, un pedazo de choclo y un solo pedazo de cuero reventado (cuero reventado que venden las mujeres indígenas por la calle a $1,00 dólar tremenda sábana de cuero)... faltaban las empanadas, el tostado, el aguacate... realmente no les recomiendo ir a Latacunga por cascaritas. Si estoy pagando casi $9 dólares por un plato completo de cascaritas al menos espero que se me sirva en un plato y cubiertos 🥄 pero ni eso me dieron, tuve que yo mismo levantarme de la mesa para solicitar que me ayuden con cuchara, y para rematar nunca se acercaron a la mesa a ofrecerme ninguna bebida, tuve que yo mismo como anteriormente levantarme a solicitar algún jugo o algo, pronto regresaré a Latacunga para hacer un video del local el cuál me dieron PÉSIMO SERVICIO. saludos desde la Ciudad de Quito 🎉

Lamento que hayas tenido una experiencia tan mala, ya que no fue lo mismo para mí, pero tal vez deberías probar un lugar diferente, ya que un restaurante no representa a toda la ciudad.

@@ayngelina ... si, quiero regresar nuevamente a Latacunga pero esta vez quiero ir al lindo pueblito de Buenaventura, he escuchado mucho de ese pueblito

No conozco Buenaventura, hay rica comida típica?

"Everyone was wrong"?...Who are everyone? and they were wrong about what?...that´s what people say to try to scam other people. By the way, you can eat and visit all the city y two hours, after that there is nothing.

[@ayngelina]

People told me there was nothing yo do there and I visited for 4 nights and plan to go back for the things I missed.

[@mapcec593]

@@ayngelina it is true. I recommend you go one morning, nothing else, after that you will realize your friends are telling you the truth and if you like it go back, but I don´t recommend you stay more time than one morning.

[@ayngelina]

@@mapcec593 I'll agree to disagree here. I'm going back because I wasn't able to see all I wanted and discovered some traditional food there that you I haven't seen elsewhere.

@@ayngelina Each place is unique, small cities have a charming vibe that others have lost with globalization, your video is interesting because it shows a part of Ecuador unknown to most foreigners and even many Ecuadorians.

[@ayngelina]

@@quitomav thank you. I felt the same way here, so much to explore.

The funniest part of the entire video is when the mestiza Americanized “white girl” says she’s white. No sabe que es una India mestiza??

[@ayngelina]

The funniest part of making these videos is when people accuse me of intentionally saying words wrong because they think I’m Latina. I’m Canadian and my heritage is Italian and Irish grandparents.

[@ForgottenChild2010]

@@ayngelina so you’re North American indigenous. It shows. You ought to do a 24 and me. We’re all essentially one people. North, central, South America, even the natives of the Caribbean that are almost all but extinct.

[@ayngelina]

I actually did do one because I thought I was Latina since so many people brought it up. And I would have been happy to realize that I was. But I’m a boring European mix, both sides of my family came over with my grandparents. Believe me I wish I weren’t so boring.

Ya deje de comer, qué le va a dar muchas cosas negativas.. Que manera de comer, en su país no hay comida

Mi vida no es para todos! Además este no es un solo día sino un video recopilatorio para compartir la mejor comida de Latacunga.
