Pizza and (Banana) Beer
A Brief First Impression
In Kigali, Rwanda, kebabs are bar food, avocado trees line the streets, and gorgeous hillside vistas appear around every bend.
And it gets better: sidewalks, paved roads, gregarious people, buses that leave on time, turquoise-headed iguanas that scurry across your path. Banana wine - actually a beer - is a local delicacy. Internet access is relatively inexpensive. The temperature hovers between 60 and 75. Not just one, but several pizzerias exist.
The small details are the most intriguing reflections of culture, and Kigali often displays a sunny, polite disposition. An example: Mr. Clean is called by his French nom here. The local market's back shelf is lined with big yellow bottles of MR. PROPRE to disinfect your floors.
