TIMORESE CUISINE; DISAPPOINTMENT

I really can’t discern whether there is a national Timorese cuisine. There doesn’t appear to be. All restaurants seem to be Indonesian or Chinese. The food really is a disappointment after having spent so much time in Honduras, where I enjoyed the food immensely. In the rural areas, the population seems to eat only white rice and a boiled spinach like substance. There is almost no meat in the diet. The only protein source seems to be the occasional fried egg. After one week, I’m already tired of these meals.
