North-Indian Food & Diwali

-
Festivals and food go hand-in-hand. Whenever we celebrate a festival, we always try to have really good food along with it. And for us North-Indians, festivals have never been the reason why we want to have good food. For us, each day is worth having good, delicious, authentic North-Indian food. Diwali is no exception. With house parties going on in almost every home, we end up eating those delicious tikkas, sumptuous biryani and many other delicacies.

Food always binds us all, and when its North-Indian food, we do more than just mere binding. We share food as well as memories. As a popular saying goes "There is no love sincerer than the love for food", we tend to connect with people who share similar tastes. Here steps in the outstanding Chhole Bhature. They are a perfect breakfast meal for festivals. Surprisingly, they are a great conversation starter. A heavy breakfast brings on laziness. But we North-Indians never feel lazy, specially after having such an amazing breakfast.




Another dish I would like to talk about is Aloo Puri. This is the best meal to end your day with. It might be a little heavy on the stomach, but it's not at all heavy for the tongue. Those little puris are so delicious, you can't stop by just having 1 or 2 or maybe even 3. To end it all, if it's paired with Jalebi, you can just go to a peaceful coma after this. Jalebi is like an anesthesia for North-Indians. We can have it anytime, anywhere. And these are the delicacies we can never get tired of.

For me this is my way of celebrating Diwali. Comment below your way to celebrate this auspicious and fun day.

    Binge eating is the way I celebrate Diwali. This article truly describes how we like to indulge in tasteful finger licking food all through the festivities.

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...
