Yesterday I went to the brewery with the Americans, Max and Eva and Eva's brother and sister in law. On the way we sort of made a detour to check out this party in a park thing. The park wasn't really a park, it was more like a show jumping and general horse riding place but had some spare land that they decided to pitch food stalls and games, plus a small fun fair with rides and all. We were all hungry by this point from the long walk to the park from my hostel via their hostel as they checked out and went elsewhere, somewhere more central in town. The food stalls were very confusing, you sat down and were touted by people from each of the stalls talking about their food and everything. We finally sat down at a bench and I accidentally put my hand in bird poo, because there was bird poo on a bench indoors. The food choices were very confusing, everywhere pretty much had the same menu but we had no idea what looked the best or tasted the best. Max and myself decided to go with steak, egg and chips, the rest went for fried fish. When the food finally came out it was a little worse than we all expected but the steak, eggs and chips tasted okay. The fish on the other hand got mixed reviews, although most of them were the same, they all looked different and probably tasted completely different. Eva's sister in law tried to order things but it seemed every time she ordered something they didn't have it. Then she went to another stall and got the fried fish. When hers came out it looked okay but after only a few bites it turned out to be very bad, it tasted off and very overcooked. We'll what did we expect going to a park and eating in some tacky restaurant area with dirt cheap food, around £4 for a large meal. None of us completely finished our food and headed for a patch of sun out in the park to play a bit of hakisack and relax a bit whilst we digest our food.
