A Vada can make my day badha!

My 2 weeks of bliss this summer included:


Steaming cups of chai to chase away monsoon blues


Sitting on my Aunt's porch watching the vallams go by...





Playing the tourist-Santa Cruz Basilica dating back 500 yrs

My favorite haunt : https://www.facebook.com/GokulOotupura/

And indulging in the gastronomic delights that await me at every corner....from the best mom cooked food to thatta kada fare to 5 star, all lip smackin, finger lickin good!
Special mention -my all time seafood favorites -clams(thanks to my fav Aunt), prawns, fish moilee, mathi fry(sardines) , naymeen thala- wild caught, fresh, salt water or freshwater, you name it!
Another special mention- great memories at Kipling Cafe thanks to the ladies who made it happen :)

Salute to God's own country!
