Postcard from Lunch


Dragon fruit (pitaya). So pretty, I just had to share it. I also had some grapes, blue cheese, and crackers. Highlight of an otherwise banal Tuesday.

Whoa! I know you just posted this 5 seconds ago but as we speak, I'm writing an article on exotic fruits and dragonfruit was included! Definitely gorgeous!

dragon fruit looks wonderful, but the taste is borring...what a shame!

I was just looking at them in the supermarket and didn;t buy - now I know what they look like inside I'll give them a go. Thanks!

Hillary- I'll look forward to your article, I didn't know what to do with a dragon fruit other than just eat it.

Elmi- I disagree, unfortunately many dragon fruit can be lacking in flavor, but if you're able to find a good fresh one they can be fabulous. I like them eitherways. even the boring ones.

Lesley- inside the inside stunning? Certainly worth trying...

I love how the picture of the dragon fruit (top left corner) almost gives them a fluorescent look. Simply stunning.

Krizia- ah, that's my fav. photo too, I was going to post it really big as the only photo, but decided to do four photos instead. I'm glad you noticed it.

Dragon fruit is a food that grows on a climbing cactus called Hylocereus, which you'll find in tropical regions around the world. Thanks for sharing.
