While I really want people to come to my blog, writing for getting those readers is such a pain! I always have excuses and this time it was too much, school exams and the latest – no network! But wait, to write a blog post you don’t need network. So here I was on my…
Feeding broccoli to your kid – Chicken and Broccoli Alfredo
If you are lucky enough to have a son who loves broccoli this recipe is just the one for you. I got it off the Tasty app, but i made my own version of it and it got gobbled up in minutes. Aiden is one of those few kids who likes raw or near raw…
Highway Gomantak: Fresh fish trail
Fresh fish can be bought from the market and made at home. And this happens every week at my place. But what if you are extra lazy on an extra long weekend? And what if your cooks are also in that ‘i don’t want to cook no-more’ mode? So the lazy blogger made her way…
Late post: Glenfiddich’s search for the World’s Most Experimental Bartender
Living up to the title of #lazyblogger here is my late post on Glenfiddich, an event which i attended almost a month back. This is the first time Glenfiddich hosted an event in Mumbai of this calibre, to look for the World’s Most Experimental Bartender. This global search aims to recognise and reward bartenders who…

I come from a home where everyone (that’s my son and me 😉 hates cooked vegetables. Atleast by now i know that my son isn’t averse to raw vegetables. The weekend that went by i decided to experiment with the cous cous that was lying in my cupboard. I had got it being totally inspired…

Post holiday blues – the very late blog on Lanka
When you are on your holiday you go with the intention of documenting everything and coming back with full gusto to open your blog and write ALL of your experiences. Then life happens. You come back and dive neck deep into work, and then you drown in your kid’s class tests and when you are…
Sayantani’s Chingri Macher Malaikari
Sayantani is my beautiful colleague from Kolkata. I met her last year and was overjoyed this year when this year she moved to Mumbai. With her she not only brought to office her famed Bengali accent, the unique manner in which she dressed but also her Bengali cuisine. This was when i felt, its always…
F(e)asting during Ramzan: A Bohri meal experience
Did you know you eat lesser when you sit on the floor cross-legged to eat versus sitting at a dining table? Did you know that roasted garlic and chillies help you digest mutton and other heavy meals? Did you know that no morsel of food goes waste at a Bohri wedding and that the thaal…
Papa’s Pork Sorpotel: My long impending post on..pork..again
When most people look for comfort food, they would cite maggi, pasta, pizza, ‘bhate-bhat’ for the bengalis, daal-bhat for most of the others. My comfort food for all seasons and for all the right reasons is pork sorpotel. And just the way my papa makes it. Though i have tried several versions of this dish,…
