21.04.08 Cholitas with chopsticks

Here, cooking gas comes in large metal canisters, rather than being piped into the homes. Not only have we run out of gas but we have no idea how to get any more; as a result, we are having to eat out. Today we went to Wagamama’s (not the franchise necessarily but noodles none the less). The sight of ladies in traditional costume has long since stopped raising an eyebrow for us, but somehow seeing cholitas eating noodles with chopsticks seemed so completely incongruous that it brought back the old fascination.
