Myriad Tastes of India

(Click on the image to see it enlarged)

Got this as a forward. Thought I'll post it here for posterity. Lots of dishes (veggie ones, of course) I hadn't heard of at all and they are in the must try list..! What a sad state of affairs :(

Now, another reason to travel to all the different states of India.

How do you explain....

to a Foreigner, when on a trip to India, he asks you...

- that if sarees are supposed to be modest covering the woman from head to toe, then why does it cover in the front and the back is left bare ?!!!!!. (after seeing a lot of backless choli's on a domestic flight)

- that if right way of eating is only by one hand and that too, the right hand being the norm, then why only "saunf" is put in the left hand and eaten ...! (after seeing some of my colleagues placing a spoonful of suanf in their left hand and then throwing the entire lot into their mouths :) )
