Dishes with a Twist
The best way to eat mangoes is to peel it with your bare hands and take a bite of the delicious fruit, unmindful of its juice trickling down your mouth. Of course, the more "sosy" ones would prefer to eat using a knife and fork, careful not to have their hands wet with the juice. Nevertheless, the mangoes still taste sweet regardless of how you eat it.

Do you know that you can also use mangoes when cooking? Adding slices of this fruit in your dishes will give it an exciting and flavorful twist.

Along the busy street of San Miguel in Jordan is a very popular restaurant called The Pitstop. The reason why locals and tourists go to this place is due to its unique take on mangoes.
