The six things I love about Tahiti. I love the fact that it is a combination of the best of both the French and Tahitian/polynesian influences especially food lol 1. Le baguette - I have no idea what cheap subsitute they sell to us in Mangere but the baguette here is the real deal and only 50 francs (70 cents NZ) lol. 2. Le Poisson cru au lait de coco a la tahitienne (Tahitian Raw Fish /Oka). Its Samoan counterpart is often drowning in coconut milk (not complaining) lol but Tahiti manages to balance just the right amount of coconut milk, lime and lemon which ensures the fish is the main star of the dish.... yummm 3. La crepe alla nutella - pancake with nutella lol (everything sounds more romantic in French). There are no words to explain my experience with this treasure. Lets just say it exploded in my mouth and felt like the first time I had ever felt that sensation (pugi). 4. Le Roulotte - every night on the Papaete wharf, a handful of food trucks turn up all offering differrent types of food at reasonable prices and just as fantastic as the food is the envionment its just beautiful its a like a nice tiled park area with benches seats and tables and old french style lamp posts over looking the wharf with a beautiful view of Moorea across the water. So romantic. You know.... if you have someone to have romantic times with (kaaaaaariii kaaaaaari) 5. Le taxi - never in my life have I seen Range Rover/Hummer taxis. Everyone has these huge flash European cars. Even the taxi drivers lol. Shout out to the taxi driver who brought my passport back after I left it in the taxi..... on the first day lol. 6. Moorea - you catch a ferry takes about 25 minutes. Beautiful island with beautiful beaches and landscape. Ok so I just noticed 4/6 of my highlights are about food lol. Tahiti is beautiful - although I note they import most things and there isnt a strong agricultutral secotor which is unfortunate given the beauty of the land. I did see beautiful ulu trees everywhere. They call them uru. You can evn get uru frites (fries). The only advice I would give to those thinking of coming over.... learn some basic French. Most vendors are friendly and make an effort to conversate in anglais. For others they just dont speak English at all and if you cant speak French then there is really no point trying to talk you lol .... Imnl serious they shake their heads and walk away lmaooo And so my explanation for the fuarose tour of fuki industries in Tahiti is due to language barriers hahhahah ehhhhhh Jadore Tahiti ♥
