There was almost nothing in the area but tourist places and a mediocre Mexican restaurant. We missed Thai food in particular. It was organized very much like you plan to do yours, and it worked well (in fact, it's still going on, with a substitute couple now that Jerry and I are out of reach). I wanted to do Moroccan/Tunisian and make b'stilla, but never got around to it. We did Thai, Greek, Provencal, various Italian provinces (one couple traveled to Italy regularly and knew the cuisine really well), Indian -- oh gosh I'm forgetting a bunch -- Kentucky redneck (one person's roots), and yes, a '50s retro thing with onion dip, pigs in blankets, beef Wellington. It was huge fun!Revalanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15523121402264988240noreply@blogger.com
