Avoid Samosas?Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea | ||
For my next trip to the SP should I avoid places that sell Samosas? Of course there are enough Indians in Fiji that I should be safe but what about actual Melanesians/Polynesians/Micronesians making savoury pastries-can they be trusted? As to Ocker and Kiwi imitations let's no go there!! | ||
I'm not sure if they were actually samosas, but my friend in Lata, Santa Cruz, Solomon Islands, sold the most delicious savoury pastries in one of the local shops. I stayed with her for a week, waiting for a plane, and never got sick once. Delicious. | 1 | |
I feel like there is a hidden message here that I am not getting. Why would you avoid samosas? Or is it samosas makers you are avoid? Or is this a veiled reference for something else entirely? | 2 | |
"is this a veiled reference for something else entirely? " Indeed........ Some wonder if they should avoid Samoa, others wonder if they should avoid Samosas. | 3 | |
sigh. But have the samosas recently been cooked inside out? Or upside down? It makes a difference you know. | 4 | |
And besides that- some people need to get a sense of humor. | 5 | |
I think the OP wants to raise the important issue of Indian hegemony in the South Pacific ;-) He should be aware that we are all eating Chinese food here by now and smoke Cuban cigars. | 6 | |
