| Traditional Sudanese dish: Foul |
It seems natural for people to think that his/her customs are the 'right' ones. The timing of the meals here in Sudan confirms that everything is relative. The other day my supervisor at the University asked me if I had already had breakfast.On itself, not a peculiar question, but the fact that it was 13.00 PM shows that the Sudanese have rather late breakfasts (from a Dutch point of view ;). Most office hours here run from 8.30-16.30 PM and after work it is time for lunch. So yesterday I had lunch while the sun was descending. You can imagine that the dinners are generally being served when I would normally be in bed. Something to take into account when you are being invited for a Sudanese dinner!
