14. just ate some horsemeat in mongolia

was on a tour and at one of the lunch stops they served horse meat cutlets. not really very tasty and kind of tough. first, and only, time i have ever tried it. don't think i will ever find the need to try it again.

on the other hand - had some yak meat in lhasa and it was really yummy.
