A day before Mt. Kilimanjaro
Marathon 2014 was very brilliant day in Moshi.
This was June 29, 2014 at Moshi
Club
Guests from United States of
America (USA), Republic of Ireland and Tanzanians participated in “get together
party”.
Most interesting was the
present of Music Band called “Clarinet For Conservation” you know why, I will
tell you later.
The present of Assistant
Commissioner of Kilimanjaro Regional
Mr.Estomih Makyara was most remarkable point in that event.
The Director and Founder of Mt.
Kilimanjaro Marathon Marie Frances, invited all the guests in the party was
wonderful day!
Let’s have a look on:
Food
Famous Snacks: maandazi (fried
dough), isheti, kashata, kebab (kabaab), samosa (sambusa), mkate
wa kumimina (Zanzibar rice bread), vileja, vitumbua (rice patties), bagia,
and many others.
Along the coastal regions (Dar es Salaam, Tanga, Bagamoyo, Zanzibar, and
Pemba), spicy foods are common, and there is also much use of coconut milk.
Regions in Tanzania's mainland also have their own unique foods. Some typical
mainland Tanzanian foods include rice (wali),
ugali (maize
porridge), chapati (a
kind of bread), nyama
choma (grilled meat), mshikaki
(marinated beef), fish, pilau, biryani, and ndizi-nyama
(plantains with meat). Commonly used vegetables include bamia
(okra), mchicha (a
kind of spinach), njegere
(green peas), maharage
(beans), and kisamvu
(cassava
leaves).
Many people drink tea (chai)
in Tanzania. Usually tea is drunk in the morning, during breakfast with chapati
and maandazi, and at times at night during supper. Coffee is
second, and is usually taken in the evening, when the sun is down, and people
are on the front porch, playing cards or bao.
Many people drink coffee with kashata (a very sweet tasting snack made
from coconut meat
or groundnuts).
