The special foods that hard to find in others
place is local seaweeds ! There is two
varieties here. First, is more springy and crunchy type that needs to be cooked
and then eaten with some garnishing of lime, onions, and chilli. It was nice,
taste a bit like crunchy agar agar. This is surely the more unique seaweed!
