Location

the Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of
Honduras.
Special Holidays
• The special holiday is Independence city
party. In Honduras the holiday is part of
our tradition and is fun to celebrate
because you have big surprises and
my family play with a funny noise like a car
horn.
Food
• We eat at Honduras: Beans, maize, tortillas, and
rice are the staple foods. Bananas, pineapples,
mangoes, citrus fruit, coconuts, melons,
avocados, potatoes, and yams are the most
common fruits and vegetables. Special dishes
include tapado (a stew of beef, vegetables, and
coconut milk), mondongo (tripe and beef
knuckles), nacatamales (pork tamales), and
torrejas (similar to French toast and served at
Christmas). Topogios or charramuscas (frozen
fruit juice in a plastic bag) are popular during the
summer months. Soda is popular, and coffee is
usually served with the main meal of the day.
Many restaurants in major cities serve pizza,
hamburgers, and other North American dishes.
The food is good too.
