BIRYANI AND KEBAB FESTIVAL

I always keep on wondering why and why does my life always revolves around food??????Guess its in my genes...Sunday Telegraph organizes BIRYANI AND KEBAB FESTIVAL in city center1..Only an hour back i decided to take rest the entire day , the moment I saw the add. in the news paper i wanted to rush..Resolution to be on a strict diet instantly changed and all i wanted was to gorge on Kebab and Biryani..
Rest the pictures says it all!!!!!

    
Almost all the renowned brands that serve Biryani in Kolkata.

 

Do take a look at the crowed ..The picture doesn't says that Young India is obsessed  with diet!!

Hariyali Chicken Kebab(almost got over before I could click)

A closer view of the kebab.

Sorry guys.Couldn't click the Biryani.. was  busy eating..

• Chicken Hariyali kebab was superb.
• Chicken Tangri  Kebab was not cooked properly from inside,but then it was oke considering the amount of crowed.
• Biryani was again superb.
• We tried out different stalls.The food quality was good almost every where.
• PN: The above mentioned statements are only for the items we have tasted.

                  Above picture shows two different people of different age enjoying the same food.Food seems    to be an universal equilizer.

People of all age seems to be in love with food..

A BONG'S BANDH!!!!!

A BONG'S BANDH!!!!!
                                         I wasn't sure  if i would go to office the next day, so pre-holiday  celebration went missing.You always get the leisure  of not ironing your cloths and leave some work to be done the next day coz its a holiday.
                        When i was thinking whether to iron my cloths or not suddenly Ruby( room-mate) says" Reea tu kaal office ja rahe hai kiya? mye sochi nahe jaungi"
                         Ishita(room mate)"  I will work from home tomorrow bitch(that is how we address each other) "
                         Some of my colleagues already said that they were not going. ..... "bap re risk ke nabe? kichu jodi hoye jai bare jabo ki kore"(who is going to take the risk? if something happens how will we go home?)------- baaas enough  for me to decide...I was not going...so no ironing and loads of  work all stopped in the mid way to be completed the next morning(if ever next morning comes)
                          My alarm which is set at 7.45 am ( mon-fri)  woke me up at 7.45 only to make me realize that it was a holiday and minutes later I went off to sleep again...(huhh !! who wakes up at 7.45 on a holiday).A severe natures call woke me up at round 9.20 else i would have slept more..
                         A bongs holiday is never complete without GOOD FOOD..So everyone set to decide the menu for lunch..Chilli chicken- fried rice, kosha mangso- bhat, Illish mach every one was coming up with something..Finally  Kosha-mansho, bhat and chicken pakora --the menu for lunch..
                        At around 10.20 Dada (my land lord)comes up with the idea of  a  walk to see the effectiveness of the bandh..so it was morning walk for me at 10.30.The road was by far much less crowded then the normal days, a few public buses ,less autos and some private cars.the local market was open with less bhir bhar.On our way back garam garam cha in bhar(small cup like stuffs made of clay) kick started my day..        

         Baishakhi at around 10.30

                                  

A girl buying potato's

                                                   
                      I came back at around 12.30, lazed around ,gossiped with my roomies ......
                      At  2.30  it was time for  drinks(Sprite,Vodkha,etc..choice is  yours) and chicken pakora,salad, potato chips.I had lunch at  around 4.45  with mutton..

chicken,salad,drinks

                                                         

Mutton on the process

                     Dizzy...all i wanted to do was sleeeep..My mind slipped to the thought how much loss a state incurs due to a bandh??? Huuu!!! no serious thoughts..sleeeppppp is what waiting for u Reea.......
                     .And  there I was cladded in a chaddar off to my dreamland  only to wake up in the late evening  and find Ishita  still working..     Poor Ishita..."work from home bitch" hehe.
                     Satisfaction indeed..At the cost of a days leave..
                     So a bandh turns out to be an  ideal Bong  holiday..
                     Rightly said, Chetan Bhagat -'its okey to take a leave at times' agreed...
     
                                                        GOOD FOOD AND SLEEP..
Cheers!!!!
