Get Your Food Fest On!
by Adrianna DiMare
It’s that time of year again when you can feel the holiday energy quickly approaching. Some people are already playing Christmas music or buying gifts, while others (myself), are too busy giving Thanksgiving the attention it deserves. If you’re like me, you think Thanksgiving is the best holiday. You just get to spend time with loved ones and most importantly, eat lots and lots of food. And hey, if you’re not as excited about spending time with your family, that’s where the drinks come in.
The internet can be overwhelming with articles and videos showcasing crazy new recipes, some pushing for a more unconventional Thanksgiving spread. For those of you who want to spice things up and impress your guests, but still like the classics, read on for menu recommendations that can give you the best of both worlds.
I’ve seen lots of articles lately suggesting that people ditch the turkey for another bird, like duck or chicken, and while I love those in general, it doesn’t sit right with me to abandon turkey on the big day. This recipe adds some extra flavor to your typical turkey, with lots of garlic (always good) and plenty of sage. Recipe here.
To go along with your turkey, stuffing is a must. Sage and apples are a classic delicious pairing, and so this stuffing, complete with caramelized onions and red apples, will complement your new and improved turkey recipe. Or, if you prefer to stick with your tried and true turkey method, this will still be sure to impress on its own. Recipe here.
I hate to admit it, but cranberry sauce is never really my thing during Thanksgiving. However, add elements like orange juice and zest and I’m immediately more interested. Surprise and delight your guests with this little citrusy twist on a traditional cranberry sauce. Recipe here.
My aunt makes a broccoli casserole that my family waits for all year, and I’m sure other households include various casseroles in their spreads. This green bean casserole will be sure to please, and its more subtle flavors won’t compete heavily with the other flavorful dishes on this menu. Recipe here.
Potatoes are, in my mind, Thanksgiving royalty.
First, sweet potatoes are a staple of the autumn diet, and can not be left out of the Thanksgiving meal. This beautiful and delicious-looking recipe includes fragrant rosemary and flavorful shallots (a game-changer in any dish) which are sure to step up your sweet potatoes. Recipe here.
Second, come the mashed potatoes. This recipe isn’t groundbreaking in any way, because I’m a bit of a mashed potato purist. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it, right? The only difference is that this recipe calls for the addition of Vermont cheddar, making for warm, cheesy, nap-inducing mashed potatoes. Recipe here.
Pumpkin pie is a classic crowd pleaser, and many people are loyal to their family recipes. But if you want to add both a sweet and fresh element to it (as well as make it prettier), this recipe from Food & Wine throws some ginger and caramel into the mix. Recipe here.
Okay, now here’s the real best part of Thanksgiving. If you’re unlucky enough to host, you’re lucky enough to end up with a fridge full of leftovers. I’m a huge fan of the classic turkey gobbler, (basically throwing everything you have left onto a sandwich) but these turkey sliders go the extra mile by adding asiago cheese. Keep on eating cold turkey straight out of the fridge if you’d like, or make a few of these, just do whatever feels right to enjoy the aftermath of your big meal. Recipe here.

Doctor sells traditional Odia snack on street to wean youngsters off junk food
Taking the adage of prevention being better than cure to the streets, a professional doctor has taken to selling the healthy, traditional Odia snack of mudhi-mansa on the roadside here to propagate a culture of healthy eating among denizens, especially youngsters addicted to junk food.
The zeal of Sanjeet Kumar Sahu, an MBBS from Guwahati Medical College, has earned him the affectionate epithet of 'Dr Mudhiwala', especially in the Saheed Nagar area, where he offers the delicious snack of puffed rice with chicken curry from a makeshift stall near RD Women's College.
"I noticed there is a craze for junk food among people, especially youngsters, because they have very few healthier and tastier alternatives available in the market. So I decided to put up a stall here to sell the nutritious yet tasty snack of mudhi-mansa to entice people towards healthier options," says the 27-year-old medico, who is currently preparing for his post graduation examination.
Going full throttle at the health drive, Sahu welcomes customers with a few drops of sanitizer for them to clean their hands. Thereafter the glove-clad doctor takes a few minutes to rustle up the snack on the spot by mixing finely-chopped onions, green chilies and coriander leaves with muri and chicken, which he serves at Rs 30 per plate. "I am more interested in public health than treating people who fall sick after eating unhealthy food and due to irregular eating habits. I also give hygiene and health tips to my customers in the stall," says Sahu.
Ever since he started the unique endeavour in the month of March, Sahu has been attracting a good crowd and conducting business of at least Rs 1,000 per day.
"We were going out to eat chicken chowmein one evening when the doctor's stall attracted our attention and we tried the food. It is traditional, healthy and most importantly tasty," says Chinmay Mohapatra, a resident of Unit-IX, who is one of Sahu's regulars now.
Son of a retired Army man from Angul, Sahu said initially his parents objected to his idea but were later convinced. "I was very popular in my college for my intuitive cooking. During festivals I used to prepare gulab jamun, biryani and other chicken items," he smiles.

Do you look at labels to see what nutrients is in your food? Most people are unaware of what their body needs and how to get it. Read on to discover great tips and tricks on how to take control of your health.
Calcium helps with the strength of your bones. Taking vitamin D with calcium will help with the body’s absorption of the calcium. Sunlight, certain foods, and vitamin D supplements can help with absorption. These will help your body absorb calcium.
If you want your workout to be as effective as possible, make sure to take your vitamins. Adding vitamins and minerals to your diet will allow not only for faster recovery times, but also the nourishment your body needs to build muscle and burn fat.
Any supplement that has fat needs to be taken when you eat, so plan to take it around the time you eat. Vitamins like A, E and K are ones that are best absorbed with food. They are best absorbed when consumed along with fat.
The more balanced your diet, the more of the necessary vitamins you will consume. Try to consume at least five fruit and veggie portions daily along with a bit of protein. If this is not possible for you, mineral supplements and vitamins may be for you.
Two of the best sources for vitamin D are exposure to the sun and milk. If you don’t drink a lot of milk or aren’t in the sun a lot, you need to get a supplement that has vitamin D in it. The vitamin keeps your bones strong and healthy.
Of all the sources of vitamin D, sunlight and cow’s milk are very high in potency and easily absorbed. If you don’t like milk or live in a cloudy climate, get yourself a vitamin D supplement. This vitamin can help protect bones and keep them strong.
Vitamin A is an antioxidant, and it helps to boost your immune system, which decreases your risk for heart disease, slows skin aging, and improves vision. Do not exceed the RDA of 2300 IU because large quantities can be toxic. One of the best sources of vitamin A is dark green leafy vegetables.
Adding minerals and vitamins to your diet is one way to become healthier. Getting the right amount of nutrients will help you feel good and look good, while keeping you healthy.
If you are in menopause, then you shouldn’t take prenatal vitamins. People think that these supplements help with the growth of nail and hair. Even though this is not considered dangerous, it is not recommended due to the products containing more iron than a normal dosage.
People would like to eat healthy, but cannot afford it. Vitamins and minerals taken regularly can help your body work the way it’s supposed to in order to better burn the junk food you consume to stay healthier.
Take several children gummies if you are older. Children’s supplements contain a lower dose of vitamins, and more than one will typically be needed for an adult. Don’t overdose, though!
Vitamin A will boost the immune system and it helps with your skin’s aging process while keeping heart disease at bay. However, large doses can be toxic, so do not exceed the RDA for this vitamin. You can also eat carrots or squash to up your intake.
It is important to question any information you get about mineral and vitamin supplements. Many advertisements are specifically geared towards selling you a product, not towards your health. Be sure to question any information you receive. Consider talking to your physician before beginning any type of supplementation.
Nowadays, minerals and vitamins are very important. Most of the foods that are for sale today at your local market are processed types, lacking many of the important nutrients needed for healthy living. A good multivitamin supplement can help to replace these lost essential nutrients.
Manganese is a nutrient that you should consider. Manganese heals wounds quicker and helps bones form. Manganese also helps your body metabolize carbs, proteins and even cholesterol. This can be found in whole grains, almonds, and black and green teas. You can also find supplements through the Internet or local vitamin shop.
Do your research when learning about supplements. Lots of advertisements only want to sell the product, not care about for your health. Be curious about it and find out all you can. If you are leaning towards a certain product but still have that feeling of doubt you can always ask your physician to ensure it is not only what it claims but also safe to take.
Take calcium carbonate with your meals. It’s something that has to be consumed with food. Your body cannot properly absorb this nutrient without food.
Some people will stick with only glancing at that food label, but you know there’s more to it. You know there are other ways to increase your vitamin intake. Follow the tips presented here to make the right choices for you. Your health will improve and your life will become more enjoyable.
Either steam your vegetables, or eat them raw. Vitamins can be lost when food is cooked. When choosing to cook vegetables, steaming is always the best option. Fresh vegetables are optimal, but flash frozen vegetables will maintain a lot of vitamins.

Superfoods provide vitamins and minerals important for mum's health during pregnancy, but did you know that they can really help your baby's brain development too?
The good news is - you don't need to go on a special diet.
But it's important to eat a variety of different foods every day to get the right balance of nutrients that you and your baby need. These nutrients include:
- vitamin A
- folic acid
- omega-3 fatty acids
Here are 10 of the best pregnancy superfoods - including at least 1 that might surprise you, that can help boost your baby's intelligence!
Keep reading to learn more about 1 recipe you really need to try in pregnancy.
Spinach is a great source of vitamin A, vitamin C, calcium, iron, fibre and for folic acid.
Perhaps the main benefit of including spinach in your diet is the high iron content.
Anaemia is very common during and after pregnancy – an ample source of iron ensures that you and your baby stay healthy, because it helps in baby brain development by encouraging the formation of more red blood cells.
Snacking on a banana or two every now and then, or even carrying one in your bag is a really good idea.
Bananas are just very easy to consume on the go. They contain high levels of potassium, which is not only a mood booster but also fends off the fatigue and energy drain that you experience during pregnancy, particularly around the mid-day hours.
Bananas are a rich source of the water-soluble vitamin B6 that is necessary for the development of the central nervous system of your baby. Snacking on a banana, especially in your first trimester, is great for your baby's brain and nerve development.
Have them straight up or slice them up and mix with some yogurt for a delicious smoothie.
Pregnant women should be eating a lot of carrots.
This vitamin A-rich vegetable helps develop the eyes, teeth, skin and bones of your beautiful baby.
So never skimp out on anything that contains vitamin A; carrots are accessible and easy to consume, not to mention a fantastic source of this critical vitamin. An added bonus: reduced constipation.
Ah yes! The superfood we’ve grown to love over the years!
Avocados make for an excellent addition to sandwiches and salads and you should be eating lots of them.
They contain folic acid and vitamin C, the former of which is needed for optimal tube development.
Broccoli is full of nutrients like folate and calcium which are required for a normal and healthy pregnancy, as well as optimal baby brain development.
It is a rich source of antioxidants and fibre, as well as vitamin C. This helps your body absorb more iron when you eat iron-rich food like spinach, apples or whole-wheat pasta.
What’s more, it’ll help you’re developing baby absorb the iron in your diet a lot better – an essential ingredient for healthy brain development.
If you’re a vegan who can’t tolerate dairy and citrusy fruits as well as vegetables, then adding some broccoli to your favourite dishes, salads or soups is the way to do.
Do you find it strange that popcorn ended up on this list?
Even though some consider it an unhealthy snack – on the contrary – it’s actually quite good for you.
People often include popcorn in the same category as unhealthy snacks because once you start having it, you can’t stop! It’s actually too much popcorn that is indeed detrimental to your health, due to the high amounts of butter and sodium.
However, if you have it in small doses such as a small to mid sized bag (preferably butter-free), you can reap its benefits.
Popcorn is a good source of vitamin E, fibre and antioxidant compounds. These nutrients work to strengthen the cell membranes in your baby’s brain. Instead of butter popcorn, go for the regular variety and add a little parmesan cheese to taste.
Eggs are of great source of protein and omega-3 fatty acids, as well as a low calorie alternative to other protein foods.
Protein-rich foods aid in the formation of healthy organs and baby brain development.
Always go for the organic range, and if you want to limit your calories a little then, skip the yoke altogether – although it’s here that you’ll find the omega-3 content.

You’ve probably heard of the pregnancy myth that it’s unsafe to have seafood while you’re pregnant.
While there is some truth to this myth because certain types of fish can contain high levels of harmful trace minerals and mercury – other types like sardines, mackerel, salmon, and herring contain low levels of the harmful minerals and mercury.
In fact, these types of fish are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which makes them a pregnancy superfood and a great way to boost baby brain development.
So go ahead and indulge!
🥛 Dairy Products
Calcium is a vital mineral to consume during pregnancy, because it will help you maintain good bone health, but more importantly, help your baby develop not only strong bones, but also optimal brain tissue growth – given the B vitamins.
Furthermore, the benefits of yogurt are irrefutable – in fact, we’d dedicate an entire article to that if we could, just to get the point across.
Most yogurts contains ample amounts of folic acid and vitamin D plus microflora prebiotics, which encourages daily nutrient uptake by a significant margin.
🍗 Chicken and other Lean Protein Sources
If you’re strictly not a vegan, then go ahead and consume chicken as well as other lean protein foods because they will help in optimal baby brain development.
Pregnant women need to consume a certain amount of lean protein because it’ll help them stay strong throughout pregnancy without putting on weight.
🧂 Sea Salt
Maybe not quite classed as a food, but sea salt contains the all-important iodine – an element that works to balance your hormones and helps to promote healthy baby brain development.
You can get lots of this good stuff by adding some to your dishes.Do you have any of these 65 pregnancy food cravings?

🥚🥑 Eggs Baked in Avocado
Eggs baked in avocado is a real favourite here at BABYGO. It tastes delicious and it contains 3 of the best pregnancy superfoods for baby brain development.
And best of all, it's really low in carbohydrates making it a real winner for minimising pregnancy weight gain!
What you need:
- 1 ripe avocado
- 2 eggs
- sea salt and pepper
- 4 rashers of bacon
- 1 red chilli, finely sliced – remove the seeds if you don’t like it hot (optional)
What you need to do:
- Preheat your grill to maximum, then lay the bacon on the grill pan or a baking tray and slide underneath. Grill for 3 mins on each side for crispy bacon.
- Meanwhile, cut your avocado in half, remove the stone and scoop out a generous tablespoon of flesh from each half to create a hole big enough for the egg. No need to waste the leftover avocado – you can save it and spread it on toast later!
- Crack an egg into each avocado half, season with a little salt and pepper and place on a microwaveable plate. Cook the eggs in 30-second bursts for 2 mins– this should ensure firm whites, but runny yolks.

A liquid diet is a clear winner when it comes to quick weight loss. All you need to do is consume food in the liquid form. It is often prescribed by doctors to patients with digestive problems and those recovering from injuries or about to undergo surgery. But do not follow it beyond a day for weight loss, unless your dietitian says otherwise. While it is not effective as a long-term weight loss plan, one day on a liquid diet can help detox your system and kick-start weight loss. This article discusses various liquid diets, benefits, dangers, and safe liquid diet charts. Swipe up!
What Is A Liquid Diet?
Liquid diets are low-cal foods in the liquid form. You can either choose to replace one or two meals of your day with liquid foods or go on a total liquid diet. This means, you will consume calories in the liquid form. You can juice fruits and veggies, make smoothies, or have soup. There are mainly three types of liquid diet. Let’s talk about them briefly in the next section.
Types Of Liquid Diet
Following a liquid diet can be tough for beginners. And if you are not comfortable going on a complete liquid diet, you have another option. Let’s find out about the types of liquid diets. Make sure you talk to your doctor/dietitian before trying these.


The cuisine of Thailand has won a huge following in the United States because it brings unique flavors to the table. Herbs and spices like ginger, galangal, and Thai basil mix and mingle to make dishes that tantalize the palate.
Waltham locals have a few options when it comes to Thai, but Tree Top is far and away the favorite. Be aware that it can be incredibly difficult to get a table here, as the restaurant is quite tiny, and it’s often packed with locals. When you do sit down, you’ll be in for a truly exceptional meal. Start off with the stir-fried Dancing Mussels served with a spicy basil sauce that will wake up your taste buds, or go for the house special Tree Top Bags: wontons stuffed with curried vegetables and deep-fried. For entrees, frequent diners rave about the curries as well as the Crazy Noodles, a dish of wide strips of pasta served in an incredibly spicy and invigorating red sauce.

Aromatic Darkness: Cardamom for Extra Taste
When it comes to spices， there is a wide range of options available that can take your culinary creations to the next level. One spice that stands out for its unique flavor and aroma is cardamom.
Cardamom is a popular spice that has been used for centuries in cooking， both in savory and sweet dishes. It is native to the Indian subcontinent and is now cultivated in various tropical regions around the world. The spice is derived from the seeds of plants belonging to the Zingiberaceae family， commonly known as ginger plants.
One of the most distinct characteristics of cardamom is its aromatic darkness. The spice gives off a rich， earthy fragrance， with hints of citrus and mint. This aromatic darkness is what sets cardamom apart from other spices， giving it a unique and sophisticated flavor profile.
Cardamom can be used in a variety of dishes， adding depth and complexity to both sweet and savory recipes. In many Middle Eastern and Indian cuisines， it is a key ingredient in spice mixes， such as garam masala and curry powder. The spice is also commonly used in baked goods， such as cakes， cookies， and bread， where it adds a warm and exotic flavor.
Apart from its unique taste and aroma， cardamom also offers several health benefits. It is believed to aid digestion， relieve stomach problems， and freshen breath. Cardamom contains various essential oils and compounds that have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties， making it a valuable addition to any diet.
When using cardamom in your culinary creations， it is important to choose the highest quality spice to achieve the desired flavor. Look for whole green cardamom pods， as they retain the most flavor. To release the aromatic darkness of the spice， gently crush the pods and remove the seeds. The seeds can then be ground using a mortar and pestle or a spice grinder.
To fully experience the depth of cardamom's flavor， try using it in combination with other spices. It pairs well with cinnamon， nutmeg， cloves， and ginger， creating a symphony of flavors in your dishes. Whether you are making a cup of fragrant chai tea or a delicious biryani， cardamom will undoubtedly elevate the taste to new heights.
In conclusion， cardamom is a spice with an aromatic darkness that adds an extra dimension of taste to any dish. Its unique flavor profile and health benefits make it a valuable addition to any kitchen pantry. So， why not experiment with cardamom and experience the magic of its aroma and flavor in your cooking？

Ten Days of Prisoner Justice History: Day 6
When the private corporation Compass Group took over serving food at Saskatchewan prisons in November 2015, it was touted by the government as a cost-saving measure that would also increase food quality and that people “shouldn’t notice a difference”. Meal budgets sank from an average of $5-6 per person to $3.25.
It was only a month before a group of over 50 imprisoned people began a hunger strike to protest the food being served, with reports of raw eggs, food with flies in it, and frozen lunch meat. Meal frequency was another concern that sparked a followup strike in January 2016, with people being forced to go 14 hours without food between breakfast and dinner. Forest Pelletier, one of the protest organisers, also drew attention to people being held in their cells up to 21 hours per day.
Loathsome Saskatchewan premier Brad Wall commented “If you really don't like the prison food, there's one way to avoid it, and that's don't go to prison.” In a provincial system that overwhelmingly targets Indigenous people for policing and imprisonment, Wall reveals a brazen willingness to endorse political decisions that erode the health of poor and Indigenous people. Nobody deserves substandard food, and serving inedible food in prisons is one of many ways prisoners are routinely dehumanised and treated as disposable.
Dietician Nicole Pulvermacher said of the meal pictured at the top of the post that Compass took “some unfortunate shortcuts”, that positioning potatoes as a vegetable lowers the nutritional content of a meal, and that processed meat should be used sparingly.


The ancient name Outeniqua means ‘the land where honey comes from’. This changed on 19 November 2011 when the Outeniqua Farmers’ Market opened, providing a new shopping destination that created a new heart for George. From that day onwards, Outeniqua is the land where honey, cheese, fish, chocolate, cakes, berries and other delicious foods comes from.
The Outeniqua Farmers’ Market is located opposite the Garden Route Mall on the N2. The five-hectare site is the home to more than 130 food and craft stalls offering produce and goods created by local farmers and skilled craft people. From berries to bread, fish to flowers, and everything in between, local residents and international visitors find carefully selected goods to suit the most discerning tastes, at consistently reasonable prices.
“The word Outeniqua means ‘the land where honey comes from.’ We want the Outeniqua Farmers’ Market to be the land where honey, cheese, bread, sweet treats, cakes, international food, flowers, juices and all manner of high quality produce comes from. It will put George on the map as a destination, giving it the heart we always knew it had.”
The stalls at the market comprise a sophisticated mix of local produce and crafts. All goods are priced to ensure that everything remains accessible and affordable. Read more


It is easy to create a fast food restaurant. In most cases people are going to find themselves in a place where they really do not want to patronize healthy food unless it is something that is appeasing to the palate. People may fix a salad or something of that nature in their home, but it is not always going to be commonplace. Learn more about Nathaniel Ru: https://affiliatedork.com/nathaniel-ru-blazes-a-trail-in-the-health-food-industry
In order to get more people to embrace the concept of healthy food there would have to be a shift in what people are consuming. They have to feel a real need to change their daily eating habits.
Luckily, Sweetgreen has become the type of company that provides people with a wide variety of choices. Salad is not the only thing that people have to consume when they are considering Sweetgreen. This company has one bowl, and there are fruits and chips that are on the menu that are also low calorie items.
The choices are abundant for people that are trying to eat healthy, and this is the thing that has taken Sweetgreen to a new level. People like to have variety when they are considering healthy food, and Nathaniel may have realized this long before the restaurant was started.
Nathanie Ru and his team knew that would not a lot of healthy food options out there. The fact that he created a restaurant based on his inability to find something like Sweetgreen tells an entire story of the lack of healthy food options in America. Most fast food chains have salads that are part of the lineup, but most people overlook these things for burgers and fries.
What Nathaniel would ultimately realize is that he had to have variety in order to get consumers to continue to patronize his restaurant chain. He did not want to be a restaurant that was labeled as another salad fast food chain. He knew that customers could get this at other restaurants like McDonalds or Burger King. Read more: Sweetgreen Founder Interview – Nathaniel Ru | Business Insider
He wanted to do more than simply put salad on the menu. He wanted people to patronize his restaurant chain on a regular basis. Ru wanted them to have the variety that they desire in order to really change the way that they looked at healthy food options.
Nathaniel wanted Sweetgreen to be something that was desirable to the mainstream. This is why the menu has so much variety for healthy eating.

Top coffee Lounge’s In Rwanda
Written by: Travel Inn
Rwandan coffee is excellent and word renowned. For Coffee lovers visiting Rwanda and hoping to get the best of coffee beverage , There are so many coffee shops throughout the city of Kigali to visit! And if you love coffee or coffee beverage as much as I do here are some great ones are:
Bourbon: Rwanda is world-famed for its coffee beans, producing some of the world’s finest. In rural regions, it can be difficult to get hold of Rwandan coffee beans, as most are labeled for export. In the city centre, Bourbon coffee shop in Union Trading Centre is the best spot for excellent cappuccinos and blends. It’s an international chain where smart young professionals gather over lunch break. Dressed immaculately and often conversing at ease in several languages, this is a hub of the emerging educated classes. Poverty is still widespread in Rwanda and affects a majority, but here, the capital also shows signs of a burgeoning middle and upper class. Undeniably my favourite cup of coffee in the country, the types originate from plantations across Rwanda, such as Lake Kivu and Nyungwe, and can be bought as beans or ground, to take home. Meals are served in hearty portions and the wifi connectivity is excellent, making it a great spot to sit and people-watch on holiday or work over lunch.
Rendezvous Lounge Café
Unsurpassed views of the Kigali city skyline are one of the unique experiences available at this newly opened city centre hotel. From the airport, sports stadium and Conference Centre in the east to the stunning southern mountain views from the pooldeck of the highest rimflow pool in Rwanda, the all-around beauty is captivating. Served by some of the friendliest and most attentive staff in Kigali (in my experience), the food and drinks are up to the standard of the views. Try a Mutzig, the local draught, served in an ice cold glass and the grilled fish with fries.
Inzora Rooftop Café – Inside Ikirezi Bookstore 13, KG 5 Ave, Kigali, Rwanda
This was the second day in Rwanda and we had scheduled with a blogger to meet here, the café is in bookstore like all the books you ever wanted. INZORA is more than just another cafe. Perched high, with a view of the rising city in the distance, and the traditional life of the valley below, INZORA provides the perfect vantage point for inspiration. Couple this with innovative design, tasty store made and locally sourced products and a service-oriented experience and you have the perfect place to relax with friends or gets your creative inspiration flowing. Enjoy any of our spaces, from our shady roof terrace to our modern interior. The youngest of customers will also enjoy the space in our fun playhouse and kitchen.
Question Coffee Bar
Question Coffee is more than just a coffee shop and small-batch roastery sourcing exceptional coffees from farmers throughout Rwanda. They work closely with Sustainable Growers (formerly known as Relationship Coffee Institute) an organization formed in 2013 by Bloomberg Philanthropies in partnership with Sustainable Harvest. Question Coffee re-invests all proceeds from sales into training women farmers across Rwanda. The training programs focus on coffee agronomy techniques and business practices and provide women farmers with the knowledge and skills to form direct, productive relationships with coffee cooperatives, processors, importers, and roasters. Ultimately, the goal is to improve the coffee quality, increase its value in local and global markets, and increase the farmers’ yields and their incomes as a result.
This has to be one of my favorite coffee places in Kigali. Situated straight across from the Teacher’s College in Remera (bordering on Kimironko), you’ll always see trendy Rwandans coming for lunch between classes. The coffee is amazing, and their selection of iced drinks and milkshakes is both cheap and good.
For a hearty lunch, I highly recommend the omelet wrap, an insanely huge dish consisting of a 5-egg omelet wrapped around beef strips and fried vegetables. And in case you’re still hungry, it comes with bread and butter – greatness!
Neo Cafe – Kigali Business Centre, KN 5 Rd, Kigali, Rwanda
This offbeat rooftop cafe is famous for its perfectly brewed coffee, excellent tea, yummy pastries, generous sandwiches, colourful decor and chilled seating. Very ‘modern Kigali’. Neo represents a modern and vibrant approach to celebrating Africa’s coffee heritage. Sourced from the shores of Lake Kivu in the Hills of Rwanda.

[INNEWS comprehensive report] On August 29, Chan Sokheang, chairman of the Cambodian Rice Federation, said that India, as the world’s largest rice exporter, restricts the export of broken rice and other types of rice, including restrictions on the export of wheat and sugar and grain storage. It’s an opportunity.
He explained that India’s restrictions on rice exports are an opportunity for Cambodia to capture more market share. At the same time, it is a good opportunity for Cambodia as a rice exporter, because when the demand increases, the suppliers will decrease, it is time to occupy more market share, and at the same time, it also needs to strengthen itself, especially To maintain the quality of the rice will enjoy the reputation of the best rice.
According to reports, the Indian government plans to set the price of basmati rice at $1,200 per ton to prevent smuggling of prohibited rice. However, some cases sold for as little as $359 a tonne, well below the month’s average export price of $1,214. The government will take action after the contract price is determined and found to be selling for less than $1,200 per tonne.
Previously, India imposed a 20% tariff on brown rice exports on August 25, and the brown rice export tax was valid until October 15, 2023. Meanwhile, neighboring Vietnam, which has been a major trader of Cambodian rice, has been paying higher prices than usual this year to buy rice from Cambodia. Vietnam has stockpiled a large amount of rice, which can be used both internally and exported. Although Vietnam is the third largest rice exporter in the world, Vietnam also imports rice from other countries for consumption areas.
Yang Saing Koma, secretary of state at Cambodia’s Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, said India’s restrictions on rice exports are good for Cambodia because Cambodia has good food security and is also a rice exporter. Although food security problems have emerged in some countries after India suspended rice exports, Cambodia has not faced any problems, but instead gave Cambodia opportunities.
The Ministry of Agriculture and the Rice Federation have been working hard to work with farmers and factories to promote Cambodian rice exports. As well as going to the global market as planned, Cambodian rice will make more contributions to global food security. According to the report of the Cambodian Rice Federation, in the first seven months of 2023, Cambodia exported 362,798 tons of rice, targeting 52 countries around the world, accounting for 52% of the planned 700,000 tons.

While on our recent trip to New York City, we of course had to try a steak at Peter Luger, often cited as the best steakhouse in the USA. We called 6 weeks in advance for a Friday night dinner reservation for 2 and the only time slot offered to us was 9:45 pm. I was later told by those in the know that they hold back tables for locals and regulars...as unknown tourists we were shunted into an unpopular time. It could have been worse, they were still seating people at 11:00.
It was raining so traveling by public transport was out. Because of the apparent difficulty of finding a taxi in Brooklyn we hired a car service to take us. This worked out fine and made it easy to return to our hotel after dining.
Luger's was packed, noisy and bustleing. Luckily we managed to snag a seat at the long bar and our table was ready on time. It's clear that one doesn't go to Luger's for atmosphere unless one likes that run-down German beer hall feel. My martini was truly ghastly so I switched to beer after one sip. We didn't bother with the wine menu having heard it's not impressive. Beer actually goes quite well with the food.
We were seated in a room upstairs. Not a great room for those who want to see and be seen but perfect for us. Unlike the downstairs rooms which have bare wooden floors, the upstairs is carpeted and conversation at the table is actually possible.
At Luger's only tourists look at the menu. Heh. There is really only one thing to order and that is the Porterhouse for 2 or more. As accompaniments we ordered the German Fries (hash browns) and the Creamed Spinach. Also a couple pieces of the famous bacon to start. First up was a very nice bread basket with 3 types of rolls...all delicious, particularly the onion rolls.
On the table is always a gravy boat of Luger's Steakhouse sauce. I'd heard that one must never put it on the steak but it goes well on the salad and rolls. Honestly, to me it just tasted like a watered down version of shrimp cocktail sauce...basically ketchup and horseradish with a squeeze of lemon. I don't get the allure.
The bacon, however, lived up to its reputaion. Easily the best bacon I have ever eaten. The only thing that confuses me is that it is referred to as Canadian bacon when it is clearly cured pork belly rather than tenderloin. Still superb.
The steak arrived quickly. This is not a linger over your courses restaurant. It was already sliced and before I could get a picture the waiter had served our plates. That took me by surprise.
The steak was cooked perfectly medium rare and served on a sizzling hot plate, apparently the plate it was broiled on. Lots of fat pooled in the bottom of the plate to spoon over each serving.
The plates after serving:
My companion tried to cook the meat further on the sizzling plate as it was a bit too rare for him. Worked pretty well.
The potatoes were quite good, almost blackened and crispy. The spinach was meh. Tasted more like flour and milk than cream to me.
So was this the best steak ever? I'm hard pressed to think of a better steak I've eaten. It had that deep, bloody, almost minerally flavor that denotes a well-aged prime steak. And it was very tender but still had a nice chew. Supposedly Luger's gets first pick of all the top prime meat produced here, and then dry ages it in house which may explain why it is so good. It was well-seasoned though I don't believe the melted fat was butter as is claimed. Maybe tourists get oil instead?
Definitely worth a visit for any serious steak fan.

Foodborne disease is as much of a problem as malaria – how standards are helping to tackle it
Foodborne diseases place as much of a burden on developing countries as malaria. The global economic burden is estimated to be over US$100 million each year, with 90% of this impacting low and middle-income countries.
However, whereas the eradication of malaria is a high-profile goal, improving food safety gets less attention. The good news is that standards have an important part to play in improving food safety, and they can be adapted for anything from complex supply chains to informal local markets.
The toll of unsafe food practices
Around 600 million people fall ill and die due to unsafe food each year. In emerging economies, the problem is often complicated by pre-existing malnutrition and reduced access to healthcare.
Foodborne disease outbreaks in developing countries are likely to be underreported and underestimated. Accurate data on the issue is hard to gather, making it more challenging for governments and authorities to address the issue.
In addition to the human suffering involved, food safety issues have a socioeconomic impact: reduced productivity, additional strain on health systems and a detriment to trade and tourism.
Tackling the issue of food safety
This is not an easy problem to address, because it has many causes. Unsafe raw food, inappropriate storage temperature, poor storage infrastructure, inadequate cooking, poor personal hygiene, improper handling methods and cross-contamination of cooked and raw food all contribute.
Foodborne disease includes bacterial infection such as salmonella, campylobacter, E-coli, listeria, and cholera. Viruses including Hepatitis A can be transmitted through food, causing lasting liver disease. Food can also carry parasites, prions (infectious agents composed of protein - bovine spongiform encephalopathy or BSE is associated with ingestion of prions). Food can also be compromised by chemicals, which may occur through mould, pollution of air, water or soil or through other vectors.
Contamination of food can take place within the home, or at any point in the supply chain – farming, distribution, packing, wholesale, retail and restaurants. The challenge is partly one of awareness and improving the understanding of food safety, but it is also about infrastructure and access to refrigerated transport, clean water, reliable energy and refrigeration.
Using an international standard to save lives
There is sometimes a perception that standards from the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) are intended for large corporations rather than small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), but this is not the case.
ISO 22000 Food safety management helps organizations to identify food safety hazards and reduce exposure to risk. It outlines the processes that can be used to create a food safety management system (FSMS), for example by identifying hazards and putting controls in place.
A National Quality Infrastructure can be used to bring about systemic change, helping to enforce regulations, raise awareness and monitor performance effectively. Find out more here.
