On a camping trek, Outshine Adventure provides three tasty, plentiful, and nutritious meals daily with a variety of local and Western dishes. Your first meal of the day starts with a king-sized breakfast that consists of a choice of porridge, muesli, or a cereal followed by eggs done to your style (it can be an omelet or fried or scrambled eggs with chapattis or bread).
Lunch is generally a selection of salad, cooked vegetable dishes, pasta, and traditional bread. Dinner is a hearty three-course meal: soup followed by a variety of vegetable, meat, rice, and pasta dishes, and completed with a simple dessert. Tea, coffee, and hot chocolate are also provided at all meals.
Outshine Adventure uses as much fresh produce as possible and special diets are regularly catered for. The cooking crew leaders are able to maintain very tight controls on health and hygiene in the kitchen with respect to general cleanliness and food preparation. The head cook makes sure that all food is prepared with respect to personal hygiene.
All foods are well cooked and vegetables are treated by potassium permanganate or iodine. Boiled water is served for drinking. Antiseptic soaps and potassium or iodine treated water are provided for washing. Special dietary requirements can also be catered for.
On the tea house treks, Outshine Adventure provides standard breakfast, lunch, and a three-course dinner. Tea or coffee will also be included with each meal. Your guide will help you with the menu selection and ensure that you get the best value meals possible. Although the food is usually plentiful and delicious, you should be aware that the menu is not normally extensive.
