Supplies


Food- In American Samoa it was a problem, a common complaint was the lack of local produce and meats- Samoa rocks in this regard, the selection isn’t as wide as more developed countries but what is here is good- or maybe I’m just used to it but .. the little supper hot peppers, sashimi grade tuna every day, ripe tomatoes, bok choy- its all good, local and cheap. My most happy surprises is that locals don’t seem to be to into filet mignon – which is a treat in the US cuz of the price tag- so the local filet is pretty cheap, fresh and tasty.

There a great curry making supplies and what you can’t buy (ie good bread) you can make do to the simple fact its an island and there is always plenty of time for that sort of thing.
