Allen Orlando is a food writer extraordinaire.
In order to get at the most exotic foods of the world he has to travel... a lot.
Some of the places he has been are very far off the beaten path of life.
These are the places of his best food encounters.
And, sometimes the locals give him whispered looks into the secrets of their cultures.
Occasionally, some of them show him a little horror... like,
The Bones Of Colonial Conquistador Rule!

THE BONES OF COLONIAL CONQUISTADOR RULE (AN EXCERPT)
(Antigua, Guatemala)
The very happy children took me down into the depth of one of the countless sub tunnels under the city.
I had come to this ancient city to get a dose of its very rich history and its world renowned foods.
After a week there, writing my articles and meeting the people and eating their food, the local kids befriended me.
And they fearlessly showed me the darker secrets of the city, me promising to keep their identities a secret, in the frightening dark tombs under the city!
