FWIW, I will venture foodwise a bit while I'm here, but not yet, and likely not much.

I have a notoriously touchy stomach, so I am starting off being extremely careful so that I don't get sick.

We did find a restaurant that offers a buffet today, for about $4. We noticed it after dinner, we decided we'll go there some night. It looked to be all local food. And rice. Rice is always safe, right?

    - cooking doesn't kill all of the bugs. -- nm - loosilu Jan 21, 08:23 4
      - yeah, but by and large you're safer with cooked food than with straight up water, or raw food likely washed in the water. -- nm - mafic Jan 21, 08:25 3
        
        you have no idea what the kitchen's cleanliness practices are. -- nm - loosilu Jan 21, 08:26 2
        
        my point still stands. -- nm - mafic Jan 21, 08:27 1
        
        so does mine. :) -- nm - loosilu Jan 21, 08:29
