Fusion Food

-
Food has evolved into something which if our ancestors could see, they would have not believed. In the past couple of years, we have seen food grow at such an exponential rate and it's mind-boggling. New restaurants and cafes are coming up with new ideas for food and its diversity, almost every single day. They serve some really good dishes, which people are admiring and are starting to develop tastes for them.


Cafes are fusing Indian food with Japanese food and making a whole new cuisine. This type of fusion can go two ways, but more often than not, it generally comes out to be pretty good. Good food doesn't always mean good looking food. It can also be food which doesn't look so appealing but the taste is a bomb.

This is where street food comes in. Even street food these days is getting fused. Street vendors are fusing Lebanese food with Indian food and making really delicious rolls like Kadhai Paneer Roll, Soya Chaap Roll and so on. This trend which is catching up to us is really something which we need to acknowledge and make it a part of our lives. Even big food chains like Domino's are Indianising their pizzas by recently adding Paneer Makhani Pizza. It does sound a little weird, but surely tastes really delicious.


If all the savory dishes are using fusion, why should desserts be left out. Desserts are an integral part of our lives already. We need them after every meal. Without them, we feel incomplete. Traditional desserts like Tiramisu, Panna Cotta, pastries are what we usually have. But when we fuse Indian flavors into these magnificent desserts, we take them to another level. Recently, cafes have been doing just this. They have been experimenting with traditional desserts and Indian flavors, like Tiramisu Rabri cake, and they are simply outstanding.

This is what food has come to. And I can only wonder where it will be in the next few years. But one thing is certain, it will be something which we haven't seen yet but when it comes, we won't get enough of it.

Ama Cafe- A Fun Hangout Place

In today's time, big is considered better. But what those big cafes don't know, is being exploited by smaller cafes like Ama Cafe . This place is hard to locate, but if it's found once it's tough to forget too. We (me, my sister and my cousins) went there upon my sister's recommendation and we thoroughly enjoyed our time at this wonderful place. As I said earlier, it was quite tough to locate, but when we entered it was a really pleasant surprise. The place is crude yet elegant, it is small yet huge and it might look like a normal run-of-the-mill cafe, but what separates it from the rest is the coffee they offer. We tried many of their coffees, but my favorite was Affogato. It's a blend of really dense and rich black coffee with cold and creamy vanilla ice-cream. When these two are mixed, the result is simply amazing. You get a really rich flavor of coffee, which is not overpowering and not too sweet. It just hits the spot. After a long hard day, this can ...

The Way To Health Through A Diet

-
As we all are getting aware of our health, we are learning more and more about how to reach our optimal weight. Some people just quit everything, in order to lose weight. But this approach is not only barbaric, but it's also hazardous. The harm this does is way more than the good it does for our bodies. I have recently started working on achieving my goal weight and it's absolutely not the way which we are all familiar with. I will be sharing my experience with dieting and losing weight. So sit back and enjoy the easiest way to lose weight. 1. Don't stop eating altogether- This is the biggest misconception about dieting. Whenever we hear the word diet, we resonate it with no eating and couldn't be more wrong. Dieting is about eating healthy, eating fresh fruits and vegetables and eating all these in moderate proportions. Eating healthy is very important as it helps in preventing many problems like High Blood Pressure, Obesity etc. 2. Avoid sweets or sugary produc...

Why we love platters?

We Indians, like overwhelming food. It doesn't matter if it's overwhelmed by just one huge dish or many small dishes, whether it's cheese or chocolate. We like to experiment with our food, that's true. But what else we like is a good and hearty platter. Recently, I tried a few platters from different places and they sure were delicious in their own way. This is a VEG PLATTER at MOB, CP and it had all the flavors of India. It had Dahi Ke Kebabs, Soya Chaap, and many other things. They were full of herbs and spices. Each dish had a unique taste, and that's what I was aiming at. It was a complete meal for a single person. But as far as the concept of a platter goes, it was far from enough for 2 people. Maybe that's what they need to work on. Otherwise, it was a great platter. Next, I tried International Veggie Platter at  Ambrosia Bliss, CP . It had all the subtleties of an international dish but still had some Indian touch to it. The way they wer...
