Quito is a peaceful place, somebody could even say life is relaxing, if not sleeping in that city. The altitude - 2,800 metres asl - makes its climate always cool and pleasant, sky is so brilliant you may be fascinated by high mountains surrounding you, and volcanoes.... The Cayambe is dominating the skyline and Pichincha is just over the city.

... mi ero persa il mangiatore di slow-caviette ... :-)
Very good tips on Quito especially about the altitude affecting the boiling point of water.
Sure wish I read your tip about the boiling water before I made spaghetti in Quito...now what excuse can I use in the USA??
Hi Andrea, a wonderful page. I did really enjoy walking around in Quito, a great city with a colonial past
I never made to Quito, I think that was a mistake...tanx for the walk around town
Great page and info!!!!
Nice to have other tasty things than 85 degree spaghetti!
T.
Looks wonderful!
Great food descriptions and funny cooking instructions
