On a bizarre tangent to Nicaragua with Todd's brother

Let's leave the rice noodles, fish sauce, and sweet pineapples of Southeast Asia for a moment to join Todd's brother Joshua Berman, guidebook and travel writer. Lately, Josh has been working as the location specialist on Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern's upcoming Nicaragua episode.

Zimmern's TV show led Todd and I to feast on an unusual salad in Hanoi (more on that in a future post) and inspired our friend Scott to try sausage pizza for the very first time. Everyone has their boundaries to break.

Both Joshua and Zimmern write about working on the "Bizarre Foods Nicaragua" episode, which airs on June 2, 2009. Unfortunately, this is just before Todd and I return to the States, so friends, you're on your own to host a "Bizarre Foods Nicaragua" viewing party complete with a casserole of bulls' testicles, armadillo surprise, and a several bottles of Flor de Caña.

Lauren G Feb 28, 2009 |   Scott, Todd and I are very proud of you. I often have a fear of sausage. There's some pretty scary stuff involved sometimes! Reply | Quote

Josh Feb 28, 2009 |   The producers are saying the Nica show is one of their best ever! I can't wait to see how they put it all together. In the meantime, Travel Channel hired me work on a Belize show for AZ's new series: "Bizarre Worlds with Andrew Zimmern." I'm currently rounding up Maya healers, chocolate makers, cave dwellers, whale sharks, and the last parandero musician... Going down there in April. Btw, I told Andrew that you went to the cricket place and he was psyched. Reply | Quote
