the few shots of food that i found time to click with bini's new canon point and shoot which she bought exclusively for the trip because gatty took the camera with him to burma and missed me by a day when he got back :( hence, shooting food was not primary on my list of things to do this time.
until someone called me this morning about my food classes and i suddenly remembered that i did have a blog about food, no matter how lifeless it is at present.i also remembered that i did have some food pictures from the trip - old habits die hard, good camera or no. i also happen to have difficulty sleeping tonight so i thought what better way to keep myself entertained than give you guys a glimpse of the ... partay in our mouths!
a polished plate of spinach canneloni
only at Magic Italy, which wouldn't have been so magical if it wasn't for the beautiful (yes, beautiful) Ricardo...but then my girlfriends would know more about that.
remember i was in mommy mode so i just concentrated on the 'beautiful' food and behaved myself! :)
spaghetti pesto at h20 at agonda beach
what is it with me and italian food?
pan asian sauces
mini falafels at abc farms,pune
it's strange coming from a darj girl
but i'm not a big fan of momos...it applies to both eating and cooking them
however, i still had to make some for my friend's friends in pune
which surprisingly i ate a lot because they turned out to be delish...:)
truth be told, i think it was because of my different and experimental (read totally awesome) stuffing !
golden fries - a lil bit o junk never hurteth anyone
piri piri chicken
masala prawns
which i am told, did not hit the spot for my friend who ordered it.

top hats at malaka spice - very healthy. period.
the remnant insides of some frothy drink
a sauce with sauce - whoever said, an ounce of sauce covers a multitude of sins, is probably right ?
no unfinished business this
some gleaming mushroom dish which i cannot remember the name of - the after effects of too many mojitos!
choco chip muffin...airport snack
a nameless kiwi crush drink
which looks harmless but is potentially potent - the sole reason why i can't give it a name!

my morning cuppa jo
potato satay
a very sweet chocolate drink at a wayward cafe in gokarna
a cottage cheese and tomato stuffed parota at mango tree.
the german couple beside me politely asked me about what i was eating
because to them it looked gorgeous...(really ?)

i just had to ask them to dig in and take a bite...my way of letting them know that, ' it ain't that great!'
i think they went for the cashew curry like concoction after that
well, some things just have to be pointed out, albeit choice of means.
:P
there is something incredibly wonderful about drinking in the afternoon with girlfriends - a bottle of valonne chenin blanc in this case - over fashion magazines, gossip and soul searching, in that order !
