Rajiv Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 Have you tried Gujrati Food in Ghatkopar.They rock ! The irony here is I was traveling to SEEPZ via Ghatkopar and we use to have Gujarati snacks of Paapdi and Jaleebi every day for breakfast. Paapdi and all that is cool, that thali is just not my cup of cake But, I have always been stubborn with my food. As a kid, I never ate onions, I wanted my dal strained on the rice, I liked everything plain., I ate khichdi with sugar, I hated milk and my taste for South Indian food came when my dad used to take me to this Udipi restaurant at Fort
kumble_rocks Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 Do Southies eat any meat ? You bet ! Try Madras Chicken Curry, Chicken 65 , Guntur Chicken Curry , Chetinaad Fish Curry to name a few.
Bongosamaj Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 Do Southies eat any meat ? They do. They usually also insist on pouring entire acres-worth of chili powder in their meat curries, which, despite addition of any other ingredient (including copious amounts of turmeric or garam masala), inevitable, looks menacingly blood-red. Tastes amazing if you have a fire-proofed larynx, otherwise you better show up with a barrel of water to extinguish the flames you'll belch out. I am willing to consider south-Indians to be a different species of humanoids simply based on the fact that they have inhumane lust and tolerance for red chili-powder. They make us northies, the 'spicy Chinese' ( Szchechuan style cooking) or the 'hot southerners' of Cajun/Creole/Latino fame look like a bunch of sweet-craving cissies. :two_thumbs_up:

And they eat it with Dosas. So hot but sooooo damn tasty :yay:
Rajiv Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 Do Southies eat any meat ? ..that hot madras curry is like the POPE of Spicy dishes ( chicken and mutton )
yoda Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 South Indian breakfast (Idly Sambar + Masala Dosa + Filter Coffee) Punjabi lunch (Tandoori Roti + Bhindi masala) Samosa with Chai as snack. Punjabi dinner (Naan + Bhartha + Raita) That would be my ideal Indian food for the day.
Rajiv Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 Ditto as yoda But I think too heavy for me for a day But for dinner, I'd prefer tandoori chicken and daal makhani

Wow, is that true? Or, is it just that you continue your habit of massive generalisation, and a continuing lack of inhibition (speaking for a billion, if I remember right) even in your current reincarnation?
yoda Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 Arent we supposed to get lighter as the day progresses ? If I weren't 20 lbs overweight, I would probably eat more. :D
Bongosamaj Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 and a continuing lack of inhibition (speaking for a billion, if I remember right) even in your current reincarnation? God help us when there are a billion Southies. Me thinks then we'd have red-chilli-flavoured corn-flakes too! :giggle:
