Peep Inn ???

Pujo normally means that you get to eat food otherwise normally available only to Bongaloids. Discovering that the Shivaji Park Pandal had a shop called Peep Inn and that it was serving Mughlai Paratha - Mr. Desai and I went to titillate our voyeuristic taste buds. (Look Ma - Big Big Words) The moghlai paratha was patchy. Patchy as in the patches which had kheema were flavoured and to die for but the non kheema patches were bleah. The mutton chop was just incredibly great. The fish roll was flaky and very fishy and very fine. I had something called a fish chop but think I got a mutton chop by mistake as there really was no difference between the two. They also had a tomato ketchup which was quite good. Must find out what brand it was.

And the finale was the super fresh rossogollas from a sweet shop there. Very very nice.

In the past few weeks havent really been eating out. Great Punjab at @ Dadar - good robust food but they have a bedbug problem. Something calle Oasis (I think) in Chembur. Avoidable to the extreme.

Hopefully now can expand my horizons along with my ever expanding waistline

Iftar blues

Being laid low by a series of health issues (Sins of the past catching up me thinks) have been forced to stick to the straight and narrow. Home cooked food its been. Will write about the joys of it sometime later. But tis the time when my mind normally turns to Minara Masjid. I really love the sweets and especially the phirni. The spare parts that you get (Take the first left or right after you enter the lane are great). Really fresh brain and some awesome meat including bater.

Damn Damn Damn Damn
