Frankly speaking, few years back I was first introduced to Momo I Am through their unique wall art and graffiti like many other ‘bhaat machh-er jhol’ eating Bengali. That was pretty new in Kolkata then! I was introduced to their food maybe a year later after that artsy discovery! And yes, I was blown away!…

There is some connection between my taste buds and authentic South Indian cuisine that I am yet to decrypt. Bengalis when they travel down South, they look for homely food but that’s not the case for me. I always try to explore places that serve the authentic local food. Actually that’s true for any place…

When I was walking out of Burnt Garlic, I was pretty confused! I had heard so many negative reviews about this place and even found people writing negative comments on my facebook check-in to this place!

As they say, ‘wabi’ means simplicity whether it be elegant or rustic, and ‘sabi’ means the beauty of age and wear.

It may differ for many, but for me having authentic South Indian food in Kolkata means heading straight to Banana Leaf!
