Alheira is a typical Portuguese sausage. Well, it’s more than a sausage. Contrary to most regular sausages, it isn’t usually made of pork but, instead, of a combination of meats. Most alheiras involve chicken, rabbit, duck and sometimes quail, rolled into shape with bread. Typical dishes in each country are ... more »]]> https://bkpk.me/alheira-more-than-a-sausage-its-history/feed/ 1 https://bkpk.me/foodporn-around-the-world-in-80-dishes-part-22/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=foodporn-around-the-world-in-80-dishes-part-22 https://bkpk.me/foodporn-around-the-world-in-80-dishes-part-22/#comments Fri, 21 Feb 2014 11:32:51 +0000 Zara http://bkpk.me/?p=10952

Cuba is a land of shortages, that is no secret. We were walking around La Habana, when we came across this pastry shop and noticed the almost empty counter.

If you’re starving… head to the USA! This country serves the most massive portions of food we’ve ever come across in 5 continents! For instance, this “slice” of carrot cake!
