Sesam, keep writing, I'm terribly envious, but it's very interesting to read what people eat in other countries.
Don't be envious :) Of course, it's great to see the world, but I would prefer to do it in less dramatic circumstances.
And in India and Nepal, they eat a lot of different things. For example, here is one of the main dishes

Usually, we have this for lunch.
It's called thali (in Nepal it's also called dal-bat and something else, in general, it's easier to find it in the menu by the picture)
The basis is a _large_ pile of rice, and they can add more if the person eating the rice wants it. ))
other components: pea soup (dal), flatbreads like lavash (roti, chapati), several different types of fresh vegetables sliced and stewed, pickles - something very salty and spicy in the form of a vegetable sauce or separate pieces of an unidentified vegetable (for those who don't have enough salt and pepper in the dish). In the case of a non-vegetarian thali, there is also meat curry, fish curry, or egg curry.
You eat all this with your hands, mixing all the components with rice. However, when people who clearly look like... well, Europeans, order it, the waiters ask if we need spoons :D
I should mention that we mostly eat in restaurants for locals, not in tourist places - it's cheaper and closer to the local specifics.

And I've completely let myself go on vacation, eating all sorts of unhealthy but delicious things, it's terrible.
and me! and me! In India, I ate all sorts of unhealthy but delicious things, and at the same time, my belt kept getting tighter and tighter - the climate is very hot. And in Nepal, there are not many sweets. There are no local ones. Or Indian or European. How can I live like this? :smile05:
For now, I'm continuing to eat Indian and pan-Asian sweets made locally.
For example, kulfi - an Asian analogue of ice cream
saffron. IMHO, it's the most delicious. The rest are too sweet for me.
