Grilled chicken, steamed vegetables, fruit salad, rice, and iced tea. This was my dinner last night, at Kenny Roger's Roasters in Robinsons mall on ADB street, Manila, Philippines. The first two days of my stay in I stuck to my vegetarian diet. Then I realized that I would probably be eating Veggie Delight at Subway for next 4 weeks, if I insist on being a vegetarian in Manila.
So here I am now, having a roasted chicken, or a grilled fish, or both, for dinner almost every night. The last time I have had non-vegetarian food so frequently was in 2004, while I was in South Korea. Since returning back from South Korea in January of 2005, I have been generally away from non-vegetarian food till coming to Philippines this month. And I will be away from meat once I return to bhArat next weekend. But while I am here, I am doing what the Romans do in Rome, and eating what the Philippinos eat in Philippines. And I am enjoying it!
