Few food pics from my India Trip

As many of you know, I was on a break from june to august as I had to attend my SIL's wedding. After coming back I wanted to post some pics but I couldn't do it. So, here are some.


My second SIL with her groom and two girls on the sides are my first SIL's kids.

Virundhu in my first SIL's place for the newly wed. The items are Chicken Biryani, onion raitha, Era varuval, vangiram fish fry, boiled egg and chicken roast.

Desserts are fruit salad (banana, jack fruit, mangoes and nagapazham) and rasamalai.


Pictures was taken in yercaud. The sour mangoes with spicy chilli powder mix is a perfect one for the cold days. This is the

American sweet corn that is grilled on charcoals and served with lemon and a spice mix.



Look closely. It's not just two monkeys. There are three of 'em. The left one is a mommy hugging the little one.


A big plate full of figs / Athi pazham. When I saw a fig dessert in viji's blog I wished this picture would become real so that I could grab some and try it. I absolutely love figs.

Last but not least is my all time favorite Panju mittai/ cotton candy. I don't like the ones we get in US. It just dosen't taste the same. I ate 3 of them in a row. YUM YUM.

That's all guys. Just wanted to share them with you. Have a nice weekend!!!

Hi Asha,
Glad that you enjoyed the pics. I loved the monkeys too. Could have taken a better picture. About that feast...it was really gr8. Still.I had to finish the food fast to lay my paws on the dessert. You know me. Ha ha ha :))

Hi Sirisha,
Thanks dear. yes, the desserts were the best.

Hi TBC,
I love the mangoes too. The moment I saw it I thought I had to click them so that I could drool over in future.

Hi Lavanya,
You are so right. I did not know how to tell the difference. But you got it. The ones we get in US is dense and it melts slowly when compared to the ones we get in India.

Hi Raks,
Happy that you liked them. Sorry to tempt you. Actually, I ate 5. I did not write that number as people would think I'm crazy. After sometime, my mom scolded me that I'm setting a bad example for my son. So, I had to stop.

Hi Usha,
virundhu on vazha ellai is something I long for. This pic will help me to pass 2 years until I get the next one.Glad that u liked it too.

Hi Lakshmi,
That's a very nice description. Loved it.

Hi Bharathy,
