While volunteering at a mountain lodge near Huaraz, Peru we attended the inauguration event of the local school and community centre. We had never seen such huge vats of soup – the essential first course for any Andean lunch.

Mmmm, you can never have too much soup.
Unfortunately it wasn’t veggie friendly so we couldnt eat it. We were impressed by the size though.
I was just gonna say did you try it? But I saw that you said it wasn’t veggie friendly.
No, it had bit chunks of meat in in unfortunately.
Wow thats a big pot. I like all the different colors the people are wearing.
The Quechua people in the Andes do always wear wonderfully colourful clothes.
That looks amazing! I’m definitely a soup fan.
We love soup too. Shame we couldn’t eat it!
