Weird meat at the night Market

It was a chilly night and I was out with Sergio on a walk at the night marken near my hostel. This market was not like any other ... the murchants were selling only variety of meet products on a stick, a shishkabab of your choice was for the taking. Some of the stuff you would see there was quite bezar; you could pretty much find there anything you imagined. There were scorpions, grasshoppers, snakes, silk warms, see hourses, star fish, deer meet and ostridge for you to try. I braved to try the ostridge meet, whereas Sergio went one step further to try the snake as well; I have had snake meet before in Thailand and was unwilling to eat it again. Of course you could bargain your way to reduce the price and we did. The ostridge ended up tasting like lamb, so we were left wondering whether it was really ostridge or just lamb in fact.



There were many tourists around and some willing to try the craziest dishes they had at the market. It was quite a shock and an interesting experience that will not escape my memory any time soon.
