I feel I need to explain the KFC picture. You see Brett and Mark were in terror that I might spend my entire six weeks in India ordering Pizzahut and KFC... so naturally I had to take a picture of the first KFC/Pizzahut I saw. Why... Cuz that is just the way I am. I still haven't had any KFC (I am a Popeyes girl anyway) and the only Pizzahut I have had THEY ordered for me when I first arrived. Perhaps they were sublimating their OWN desire for Pizzahut by ordering it for me?
Which is not to imply I am eating Indian food 24/7. I mostly save that for one meal a day but with so many International restaurants around who needs KFC? Overall, I have to say I have liked the vast majority of the Indian food I have tried. Masala Dosa... is heavenly. It is a breakfast food and my freaky shift thwarts my craving for it. (Think crispy crepe filled with potatos). Anything the give me in a roll is great. Briyani in it's many incarnations has been awesome. They Indian do tend towards the extremes of flavor. Their spicy foods are spicy and the sweets tend toward extreme sweet. The two foods I honestly HAVEN'T liked were the pickled red stuff (I don't know the name) that managed to be both very vinegary and hot at the same time. My tongue just threw up it's taste buds and said "make up your mind". The other thing I didn't like was "Gulab Jamoon" partly because I misunderstood the description. I was expecting some crispy sweet balls... and what I got were soggy sweet balls. Never in life when you are expecting crispy balls will soggy ones do. It's just a fact of life. On that note I will end this post...
And I still haven't order Pizzahut or KFC... ;)
I'm sorry but crispy or soggy balls are never a good idea! :-D
