We sampled foods from Dominican Republic, Venezuela, Argentina. All the other booths didn't look as appetizing as these but to each is their own! Australia and South America booths had kangaroo and crocodile sandwiches but we were too full to try them.

The party goes non stop and over 5 million people attending this event in the six days it's open. There are over 1000 rented booths consisting of families, friends, business groups and political parties. Each booth has their own bar, kitchen, DJ or live band.
