[h1][b]Hello Builders! 👋[/b][/h1] [h3]Last time, we’ve been talking about food production, 🌽 the core of each successful civilization. This time, we’d like to go one step further and take a closer look at Ancient Maya diet. 🔍[/h3] [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//39052778/3d32cca476be5836f80da4ce551179c2edc735bc.png[/img] If you’ve imagined their diet as plain, boring and repeatable we’d like to clear this misunderstanding. It was a [b]varied diet full of fruits 🍌, veggies 🥔 and different kinds of meat. 🍖[/b] Their everyday meals were rich in different flavors and that particular quality was able to satisfy even the most picky eaters.

[b]In order to keep your citizens happy 😀 and willing to work 💪 you’ll have to provide your community with enough food[/b]. During your gameplay in El Dorado many different buildings associated with food production will be available. Some of them specialize in the preparation of raw ingredients while others prepare the meals. 📝 One of such buildings is [b]the bakery[/b] in which the Waaj bread is prepared. This building also has another, even more important task. It prepares the corn flour, an ingredient used for many purposes such as preparing thick, rich sauces or stuffed pies called Tamales. 🧑‍🍳 [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//39052778/f0c8915be9216b6155c9da069f323257418b201c.png[/img] [h3][b]The culinary heart of the city is undoubtedly the kitchen[/b] in which many dishes are prepared and seasoned with hot spices. 🌶️ The food is cooked in various ways: grilled, stewed or fried on stones.[/h3] [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//39052778/598769963694aab08addb21c9d8e8d8bbf717757.gif[/img] [h3]Can there be a good meal without an equally tasty beverage? 🤔 [/h3] One of the most basic but still delicious drinks your society enjoys is[b] Ah- TOH- lay[/b], a sweet corn drink. During your playthrough you’ll have an opportunity to prepare even more exclusive drinks such as [b]Kakawal[/b]- a hot chocolate 🍫 or[b] Balche[/b], an alcoholic drink. We hope you enjoyed this devlog and will eagerly explore the world of ancient Yucatan Peninsula cuisine with El Dorado: the Golden City Builder.
