My Top 10 Favorite Foods #2017

-

Disclaimer : Not a fan of fine dinning - well, deserts Are an exception.
I'm someone who believes in food for the palate & Not for the eyes.
Mostly it's about quality in quantity for me.
So without much further a do..

 Here are My Top Ten Personal favorites of #2017 *including Deserts* :
#10 : Waffles *with Nutella, Strawberry & ice cream*


 The Only desert making it to the Top 10 list, Chocolate Waffles with Nutella, Strawberries and Ice cream are the Perfect combination of the three best deserts - plus a deliciously hot Waffle only adds extra Yummminess to the trio.   
#9 : Subway Salad

Healthy option Yes. Diet conscious NO.
On days when Nothing soothes the soul like the rush of fresh and juicy vegetables tossed in your favorite sauces & topped with your choice of chicken or fish. 
The Subway salad fits the bill right on point. 



#8 : Chicken / Mutton Biryani 
- Carters Blue, Charcoal Biryani

The one without which celebrations feel incomplete. 
When all you wanna Do is enjoy a grand meal with your family and friends 
- be it a festival, a special occasion or a birthday.. 
Nothing beats Biryani in bringing people together.
#7 : Khichda aka 
Chicken or Mutton Haleem 
- Mohammed Ali road

I call it - The Grand Daddy of Biryani.
A One of a kind mouth watering food item where words like "Diet" are tossed out of the park. 

 A stew composed of meat, lentils & pounded wheat made into a thick paste.
Originally an Arabic dish, introduced to the state of Hyderabad during the rule of the Nizams
- Haleem is certainly that one dish to die for on my list.  
#6 : Pasta / Risotto in Alfredo sauce with garlic bread

Pasta, Oh Pasta ! My favorite since School..
*even Risotto rice* - Dunked in thick white cheesy Alfredo, with corn, broccoli and some Bell peppers - with a dash of the right spices - a pinch of salt & sprinkles of oregano, some chilly flakes and Voila ! The perfect substitute to my Maggi cravings *& much healthier*

 When in mood to eat No food. Pasta serves you truly good.
Choice of Pasta : Penne. Duh !

#4 : South Indian tiffin / thali - Chennai

It's afternoon time amidst all the clatter of steel plates and spoons Inside one of Chennai's seemingly busiest kitchens..

You realize it's their peak hour,
So you expect your meal to be made in a hurry..

A few digs later We ordered a second one.

Day of the Destroyers

1 st October 2017 Tiger Gate, Ballard Pier. Fort. High on Christopher Nolan’s Dunkirk & much excited to simply experience our nation’s naval fleet;  I rushed myself to the prestigious celebrations of Navy week happening in Mumbai. I had no idea whatsoever as to exactly what I was going to see. No idea at all. We began by passing through a series of High security gates, and for a moment i thought we were the only ones to pay them a visit,  later did I realize there was very little public inside.  Of course, it was the 1 st day. And so we made our way pass security checks proving our identity as Indians as we produced our Adhars  *Yes only Indians allowed*  Following which We were strictly But politely asked to switch off our cell phones and put them inside those white opaque plastics they handed out to us.  Upon obliging I walked further until a guard asked me to hand over my phone, I did – He quickly sealed it and gave it back. *The t

Well, to begin with.. it's Always been a dream to one day drive the latest Formula 1 Race car. A Sport I've been following less passionately than my Dad since it's inception to television broadcasting. My oldest-faintest memory of Formula 1 goes back to when Michael Schumacher won his 1st Championship in 1994, when he raced for Benetton before Ferrari. Me? i was only a year old. Talk about astrological-star connection ; I was born on the same date as The 1st ever Formula 1 World Champion - Giuseppe Farina. Not to Brag, but I've ALSO been a little formally trained on Go-Kart's & Formula 3's by One of India's Best car racing coaches - Rayomand Banajee - a well know racing veteran - who during his peak at one point, tested with a certain Daniel Ricciardo for Formula BMW.  While Ricciardo was taking his 1st steps with the Red Bull racing team. Basically Motor sport Racing is By Default a dominating part of my genome.. & I Love it

Life Of A Thousand Deaths

People who Die everyday. No, people who kill themselves everyday. Purposely, Intentionally, day after day, time after time - innumerable amount of sacrifices, with pain to gain only a greater number of injuries both physical and emotional. You Call them Crazy you call them fools In the end It's exactly what they make of You. Blood, Sweat & Tears replace every other thing in their lives. Money is the last thing on their minds. All for that one BIG moment - fueled by true passion and will, a moment truly deserved - a tag of honor earned through a thousand deaths in one life. What they do does Not matter. But How they do it. How much they do it. After How much they do it. How often they do it. How hard they do it. How better they do it. What made them Do it & What makes them Do it - is what makes them #GOAT. Muhammad Ali. Serena Williams. Usain Bolt. Michael Jackson. Leonardo Da Vinci. MS Dhoni. Hans Zimmer. Milkha Singh. Roger Federer. Sachin Tendulkar.
