I was pleasantly surprised to find out that www.ifood.tv  is actually getting very popular here (I’m writing from Mumbai and I have been featuring stuff…mainly street food).

Last weekend, I & my hubby along with close friends of ours drove down to Mount Rushmore & Crazy Horse Memorial in South Dakota, about 365 miles from our home in Colorado.

Sculptures of Presidents George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodre Roosevelt, Abraham Lincoln

 

Mount Rushmore National Memorial is part of the Black Hills in South Dakota. The four faces carved on the Mountain are that of Presidents Washington, Jefferson, Roosevelt & Lincoln. They were sculpted by Gutzon Borglum & several other workers from 1927 to 1941. The dimensions of each face are approximately 60 feet from chin to top of the head, eyes are 11 feet across, nose: 20 feet & mouth: 18 feet across. The entire sculpture is 185 feet across & 150 feet tall.

Dates

On Tuesday, we went to Mohammed Ali Road In Mumbai. I'm very fond of the Jama Masjid area in Delhi for it's awesome Mughlai food...Md. Ali Road is its equivalent in Mumbai. We relished some of the best Tandoori fare.

On the eve of Eid, we went to Jama Masjid (Delhi) at midnight. As expected, the area was brightly lit, the atmosphere was festive. The ambience outside Jama Masjid has always intrigued me. I've been there quite a few times, especially for inexpensive but absolutely authentic Mughlai food. This time I managed to click a few decent pics, of course, only after I had eaten some extraordinary non veg fare. The trip brought back memories of the visits we made to the walled city whenever we wanted to gorge on kababs n tikkas.

A young lady bartender ‘Jessica Lal’ was shot dead in a restaurant in Indian capital Delhi in 1999. Judicial proceeding is still in a process to proclaim its final verdict. Keeping apart all the controversies Delhi government had imposed a ban over carrying out the profession of bartendering by female in capital arguing it on the grounds that they needed to be protected from the bad behaviour of drunken men.

On 2007, Dec 6 Supreme court of India gave its final ruling i.e. Law of land that women can serve liquor in bars till late night. In a landmark ruling by the apex court, women can both serve and be served alcohol in India.

Beauty of Kerala

2007 December, 11

Kerala Food Minister C Divakaran has advised his country men to eat eggs, chicken and drink milk instead of consuming rice. “We Keralites should learn to drink milk, eat eggs and chicken instead of devouring morsels of rice,” said Food Minister.

The Minister spoke like Marie Antonniette, who had provoked the French Revolution into happening. She had asked her countrymen to eat cake if they didn't have bread.  

The statement itself is the indication of God’s own country’s situation as far as the rice production is concerned. In last 40 years the area under paddy fields has been reduced to one fourth.

Cooking Show Set

In the coming months I will be documenting my personal quest to become the host of my own cooking show. Since this is a relatively new “career” there are no vocational programs or community college courses to prepare me for it. From what I have seen, thanks to shows like A&E’s Biography and TFN’s Chefography it appears that the two most import elements in securing such a position are passion for food and plain old dumb luck. Born with a passion for food, I set out to make my own luck.

They say that admitting you have a problem is half the solution. If only that same math could be attached to achieving a goal. The exact date is not known to me but sometime during the year of our Lord, two thousand three I had an epiphany that not only did I want to be a chef, but I wanted to do it in front of a camera.
