Life is an experiment

The photos have come of AF’s B’day Party


View Album … Enjoy

Last weekend me and my friends were wandering in the streets of South Mumbai… 3 of us were just walking without any destination and chatting along… one of my friend stops near a restaurant and thinks of experimenting with new food… it was a “Lebanese and Iranian” restaurant…

A pretty decent looking restaurant… as soon as the menu booklet came in, I and the other friend of mine… started commenting in a low voice… as if we are ordering the waiter

My Friend: Ek Kanda Bhajiya La
Me: Sath main cutting chai

(Menu page is turned…)

My friend: Ek Veg Chicken Kabab
Me: One omelette with no Egg

My friend: Pura Menu dekh liya sirf Paani acha hain…
Me: Ye Starter end kab hota hain

The friend who got us in was wondering what are we upto…

After a long struggle I ordered “Homos Garlic Roll”… now don’t ask me what is that.
I still couldn’t figure out…

Roll was of Maida… some French fries inside… homos and garlic sauce (the combination is yaks)… no salt… no pepper… I only know how I had it… same was the scene with my other friends… I can’t remember what they had ordered… but their body language said what were they into…

Thanks to Lemon Ice Tea… which helped me to improve the taste of my mouth…

I could recall the quote, "Eat at this restaurant and you'll never eat anywhere else again"

We then walked down from Regal to Churchgate Sea face… it was required to digest ;-)))

After reaching home I had Maggie for dinner as I had told mom that I would be eating out… he he he

“Change and growth take place when a person has risked himself and dares to become involved with experimenting with his own life”

So True... Have a great day :-)>

he he lolol :) :)
It was good one. I bet, Nothing can beat Indian spice food. Dal, Chawal, roti is just best.

If I was a waiter
My friend: Ek Veg Chicken Kabab
BnB Waiter:- Sir US me chicken is consider to be Veg. Sir do u want me to add French beans+ Capsicum+alu+ chicken for a kabab?
Me: One omelette with no Egg
BnB Waiter:- do u prefer Tomoto or onion omlete sir?

My friend: Pura Menu dekh liya sirf Paani acha hain…
BnB Waiter:- Sir paani is the Costlier Dish in our menu.
Me: Ye Starter end kab hota hain
BnB Waiter:- Agar Starter end hone wale jaisa hai tho, we would have named it Ender not a starter
ha ha ha.

Hehe didnt u'stand the Hindi convo bit but I sure u'stand why u didnt like the food...I simply adore Indian food with all those spices n aromas...no other cuisine can beat that, sorry others! :)

Living in Aus I have tasted many other cuisines...Leb, Greek, Spanish, Turkish, Asian, Jap, Italian, French etc etc...but like u, I feel like I havent eaten properly if I miss out on anything Indian everyday lol! So yeah, I'm hooked on Indian :)

@ Uttara...thanx dear... i know some were missing... next time we'll have the photo session first ;-))
What if instead of imitation... Original was there ;)) just a thought... dont mind... ha hahaha


@Boldnbeautiful...u have hit the punch line... Nothing can beat Indian Food...
If you were the waiter...
My reply would have been...

For Chicken:
Mam... we are neither in US nor in US restaurant... so kindly get me chicken which is veg ;-)

For Omelette:
If I had to have a veg omelette... I can have in a dhaba... do u have variety ???

For Pani:
Isliye to Paani order nahin kiya... dish order kar raha hoon
;-)

For Starter:
to Starter Ender dono lau... warna Starter start ho jayega to end kaise hoga ;-)

ha ha ha ha

Real good replies... I had great fun... :-)))

Im still smiling at your restaurant experience. Most middle eastern veg foods have salads and mixed with hommoos, their main ingredient. It does taste bland but I like Falafels the best. Next time if you are ever forced to go to any middle eastern restaurant, do try it. And yes, nothing compares to the Indian foods.

Nice pictures, would be nice if you had lil captions describing the fun you folks had.

I have heard similar stories from my office collegues who have visited Russia few months back!

I have heard from my frens that in european countries apart from UK it is very difficult to explain what is meant by vegetarian stuff !

glad to find another veggie here!:)

@ Keshi... that reply was quick...
ya lot of my female friends say... ur not as innocent as u look...
and if some1 says my face or eyes is innocent, they are the first to interupt and say... don't go on his face...
I can't help if god has blessed me with innocent eyes or face ;-))
Infact I thank him everyday for that... :-)))

Ha ha ha ......PS go ahead....let people decide!(on public demand)even I'll have "Unbiased" judgement on it!!

btw..an interesting issue being discussed. PS am sceptical to take that u are deceptive...well ok diplomatic...even u have quoted what your friends have to say...well may be they are just jealous.....or is that some kind of guard you've found for yourself!!

@ gogoi... good1 so ur for public demand... even i'm with you... but let the "bachi" decide on it... what she wants :-))

Coming to the intersting issue... ya i agree I'm diplomatic...i wont survive otherwise ;-)
Jealous... y would my female friends be jealous of me... i dont think so :-)> ...
No Gaurd dear...
Infact I'm so happy to hear such pleasing remarks about me... it makes my day... I mean getting a compliment from a girl... it makes it all worth... ha ha ha haha...
