This staple food of every tired mom (or lazy or just bored mom) is something everyone would have despised at one point. But then would have started liking it when they are the ones who had to do the cooking. And sometimes might even crave for a good upma. My favorite happens to be semiya…
The post for T was guest written by my dear friend Megha who blogs at Vaayla Saturn. She is also doing the A-Z Challenge and you could read them here. The elixir of life that saves many people from succumbing to suicide or from murdering their bosses, the brown coloured beauty which reiterates the fact…
I don’t remember when I first tasted a shawarma. But a long time ago I used to wonder what that weird looking kebab pole was used for. So yeah once i knew what this food item was I pretty much got addicted to the juicy meat, the hummus or mayo, the fresh veggies all wrapped…
If you ever told your mother that you were having a cold, she would most probably make pepper rasam for lunch and ask you to drink it. This easy to make and easy to digest food item is another common comfort food for a lot of South Indians. Best part is the side dish we…
By quick food I mean the stuff you whip up within 5-10 minutes. When there is literally nothing in your pantry and you have to settle for that very old packet of maggi or ramen that is just lying in the corner of the shelf. After spending my college years in hostels and dorms we…
I am a sucker for Pizza. At least once a week I will sit and hog on a cheese burst pizza all by myself. Being this emotional eater, pizza is the one sure shot food item that cheers me up no matter what. Especially the ones I get almost around 10.30pm by begging the delivery…
Anyone who has lived alone would have had eggs always written in their inexistent grocery list. It was the easiest to cook. It was healthy and you can have it raw as well. (ewwww) But then omelette is pretty much the first thing any teenager (one who eats egg that is) living alone will learn…
This is like my favorite ever snack to munch on. Especially the cheese chicken nuggets make an awesome midnight snack. Yup. You read it right. Midnight snack. More than it being a evening fun snack you get from McDonalds, I like to fry up the frozen chicken nuggets and have it with some oregano mixed…
This has been my favorite for as long as I could remember. It was a fascination when I was little. To get small sized idlies immersed in yummy sambar. That was nice. Then as I grew up I restricted the places where I would like to taste this delicacy. Even when my mother makes normal…
Okay I am just pretty pissed off. Two people back to back pissed me off so much that I need to vent it out somewhere. Person 1: We were talking about stand up comedy and he asked me if I have watched a particular artist’s show. He went on to say that he didn’t like…
Okay where do I even begin? I was sort of obsessed over this cheesy dish even before I have ever tasted it or got my hands on one. It is a dish commonly mentioned in many sitcoms and on disney shows. So I have always been curious I guess. I think my first ever lasagna…
I was a bit lazy and wanted a new title for this letter. And since my friend was also equally lazy we both decided to do guest posts for it. So here is a post from K for Kishor who blogs at Blind Man’s Bluff And here is where his A-Z series begins as well……
Any Chennaiite who has visited Fruit Shop On Greams Road would have seen this drink. Either on the menu or atleast one person ordering it in front of them. For me it was my brother who introduced this drink to me. It is a thick milkshake which has an icecream base and a lot of…
If you are one of those people who is not a fan of icecream but somehow ended up in my friends list, please unfriend me immediately and go far far away from me. I don’t need that kind of negativity in my life. Scraped you knee? Have some icecream. Got low marks in your favorite…
Yup! I am talking about Nutella. And no.. I will not put it out for the letter N. N has something else coming up. So now its just this wonderful Hazelnut spread. I don’t remember when I first tried it out. But I just remember the spread being so yummy that I put just a…
