There are two neighborhoods outside our compound gate. If you go left, you hit the "expat" area with McDonalds, Starbucks, Subway and Papa Johns. If you go right, you hit a more "local" neighborhood, which appeals to us far more!

Last night, at a tiny little corner dive 2 blocks from our apt., we used sign language and pointing to have one of the yummiest dinners we've had EVER. You pick your veggies and your meat (raw) and they cook it and bring it out to you with rice. It was truly DELICIOUS, and as you can see, Jaya enjoyed it a bunch!
