Friday Favorites: Peruvian dishes, a trip to Venice, and more

Every Friday, Google Moderators highlight the best posts they found during the week to celebrate the amazing discoveries Local Guides like you are sharing on Connect. This week, Peruvian dishes, a trip to Venice, and more.

@Petra_M : This week, I couldn’t resist @Velvel ’s food post “The Noodle - a Good Companion on a Cold Day.” She introduces the noodles and side dishes she tried at the Xincheng Sliced Noodle Restaurant in Beijing, China. Her photos are mouthwatering! What’s better than a hot noodle dish on a cold day? My absolute favorite meal from her list is the order of steamed shumai dumplings. I want to try them one day!

@VitB : My favorite post of the week is “Traditional dishes from Peru” by Local Guide @marcorp . In it, he shows us three traditional Peruvian appetizers that he made for New Year’s Eve. Those appetizers are juane, tacacho, and native potatoes. I liked juane best. It’s made with rice, chicken pieces, botija olives, and eggs. If you are looking for traditional dishes to try in 2020, marcorp’s post is a great guide into the wonders of the Peruvian cuisine.

@LilyanaZ : @uavalentine 's post "Colorful Venice Pre Italian Dolce Vita Meet-up recap” is a great read to start the new year with. The Local Guide took the opportunity to visit one of the most iconic Italian cities, Venice, right before a meet-up in Treviso and shared her experiences. Her amazing photos and detailed explanations, which include some useful insights into the accessibility of each place, can serve as a great first-timer’s guide to Venice.

@Aruni : The post that captured my attention this week was written by @praveen_08 and is called “Bhedaghat Boat Ride.” It’s about Bhedaghat, a small town in India. There you can enjoy a view of the beautiful Marble Rocks and Dhuandhar Waterfall, and try activities like boat riding. There is also a crocodile cave in the rocks which I find captivating. If you would like to know more about this place, make sure to read his post.
