Delhi ki Shaddi




Yesterday had been to the mariage of one of my office colleague in Delhi . Had heard a lot about marriages of delhi which are big and lavish so was very much excited to go there and see the whole procession . And so did not wanted to miss it
We all of the team members left at around 8pm and reached NOIDA the palce where the marriage was to be held it was almost a drive of 11/2 hrs from our place . When we reached the proecession had already started and so we joined to dance along with the procession . All of us were dancing like anything and for the next 1 hour i danced like never before . The whole procession party was in full mood and it was gr8 dancing to the local marriage songs and the tunes .


The procession then entered the marriage open ground where there were stalls for all the north India cuzine .

There were chats,fruit chats ,dhalhi bhalle ,pani puri ,and n number of other items which i could not taste them all but my taste buds were tickled by many of them

Tasted all the items i could .Just a few days back i was complaning about not having tasted any of the delhi speciality cuzine and now i was here with each and everything avalilable in hte Northern part of India .

The marraige was excellent and we saw the traditional North Indian families dancing to the tunes in the madap during the marriage taking place .

Very different from how the marriages happen the Maharashtrian culture .

It always nice to go to such functions and i enjoy it a lot where we see very differnet traditions from which we are used to all the time .

In all had a very gr8 time and enjoyed a lot .

Especially my mother was very very happy since i danced for the first time ever and enjoyed .

Thats what she tells me all the time that i should enjoy and see the new things where ever i go but most of the time i am against it .

But this time i enjoyed it to the fullest .................................

The taste of Chat at Delhi

At last yesterday happen to taste the chat of delhi for which it is famous for as they say
Had been advised by many foodies to eat this and that all the time when in delhi
Yesterday got chance to pounce on the action
Had the taste of Pani Puri ( they call it Gol Gappe ), Aloo Tikki with spicy curd ,and Dhahi wada (Bhalla Papadi)
And it was really tasty .
i was having pani puri on the road side nearly after 7-8 years .
so since being out of practice for such a long time
the first one I gulped down brought tears to my ears as it was really hot and spicy
but the taste was really really good and tickled my taste buds .
and even my myth was cleared that Pani Puri has paneer in it .
The Aloo Tikki and Bhalla papadi were really gr8
To say after the Delhi Metro the best thing i liked about delhi ..............
Have now made a point to visit the place for this stuff often hmmmmmmmmmmmm yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmy
Still lot of new things to taste and eat but as and when time comes ..................surely will have it .
