Detonator Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 Gujarati food rocks for veggies' date=' but north indian food joints are ubiquitous in most of southern Cities. In my locality in bangalore, there are more north indian restaurants than south. So when I travelled north I didn't find anything special which I have not tasted.[/quote'] There are very less city/town in India without their own unique/special food. Good restaurants are everywhere. If you eat in a North Indian restaurant in south, say b'lore, you don't get the exact way as u get in north due to the local vegetables they get there. It will still taste a little like a south indian dish. Also works the other way around. For eg., the pav bhajji in coimbatore tastes very different from the ones we get in mumbai. There is a Punjabi restaurant here, without a single panjabi being employed. They serve around a huge variety of colorful chicken/mutton/fish dishes. They taste great too. My whole point is, the taste of the food depends on the cook. Not becoz it's in a particular region.
Yoda-esque Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 North. South = Karnataka' date=' Tamilnadu, Andhra and Kerala[/quote'] Ypu cannot classify a state on the basis of exclusion Thats a relative classification
ganeshran Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 Same can be said about TN if you dont know Tamil I have lived in both places. If you don't know the language, the north is far more unfriendly. In Chennai the auto drivers will try to fleece you if you are new to the place, but the locals mostly ignore you. In the north, the locals can actually be hostile to those who don't speak the language. Like I posted Bangalore is the only city which has zero language issues for newcomers. It is the true melting pot in India
G_B_ Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 LOL Raj T would blow a fuse if he heard you say Maharashtra = North

Detonator Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 Same can be said about TN if you dont know Tamil Most of the ppl from TN can atleast communicate in a little english unlike in North. If a visitor comes to TN, and expecting them to respond in hindi will cause irritation to anyone. Just like if I come to North and speak in tamil. Same as most people switching to post in hindi here in ICF.
SLICKR392 Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 Hyderabad says hello. :hello: They speak Hindi in Hyderabad so there are no language barriers there. Nice place but the traffic out there is obnoxious. :headshake:
Square Drive Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 Lankan attempt to create regional hatred between North and South :protest: Like it's not there to be seen already :giggle:
Debutant Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 Like it's not there to be seen already :giggle: Its not hatred. Just friendly discussion
Square Drive Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 So India don't recognise west and east as regions, only north and south then states? That's wrong India has six regions. 4 main then central and northeast
Debutant Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 So India don't recognise west and east as regions, only north and south then states? That's wrong India has six regions. 4 main then central and northeast The topic of discussion here is South and North India. This does not mean India does not recognize West and East. Some Lahori logic there. People here are just comparing two regions of India, where does the question of India recognizing any region comes here??
