Quito Street Food Tour
Description
At 10 am, we'll meet at the Plaza Grande to start a very tasty tour.
We'll go to the San Francisco Market, one of the most popular in the city. There we'll taste various juices and smoothies with exotic fruits and even try one of the most typical dishes of Ecuador, 'mote con chicharrón'. Do you know what it is? We'll soon find out!
Afterwards, we'll visit different 'huecas', places where we'll taste traditional succulent snacks such as humitas, tamales or quimbolitos. We'll wash down all of these tasty corn-based dishes with a good strong coffee or a cup of morocho - a traditional Ecuadorian drink. But that's not all! We'll get to taste much more elaborate dishes such as the national dish of Ecuador 'encebollado', a fish soup and some ceviche. It's enough to make your mouth water!
Have you left room for dessert? The (chocolate) icing on the cake of this tour will be a visit to the best chocolate in the country! As we all know Ecuador is famous for its chocolate. We'll accompany the cocoa with the famous Quiteño sweets - perfect for those with a sweet tooth!
After three and a half hours, we'll finish the tour at 1:30 pm at Yumbos Chocolate shop.
