As our study holidays are going on, it was long since I met Swarna and Shama, my colleagues and friends at Office. Swarna casually texted me to meet up and said she would make Pani Puri and also that she had invited Shama. I quickly agreed as it was ages since I had Chats. Ages here means Month ago, that's it.
Anyhow, at around 5:00 Pm I reached Swarnas house, after greeting her parents, I said down for Round 1, that was Dahi puri.
I loved Dahi puri on the other hand, today's Host, Swarnica ( Friends reference) did not like it even then she did prepare it. It was amazing, not too crispy neither too soft. I was too tempted that I couldn't even click pictures.
At around 5:35 , Shama arrived and then the Second round began. The typical Indian Gol Gappa was reserved. The Aloo Masala thingy was just amazing and the final pinch of pepper over it, just made it awesome.
Also there was Masala puri which was made with like an urgency, as there were some items remaining and Swarna showed how amazing of a cook she was by doing all possible "jugaads" And managing to make a tasty Masala puri for us. Kudos.
After thanking Swarna and Complimenting her, me and Shama left for our homes with more worries about how exactly we would complete our Tax Syllabus.

My friend Raghu had come back to Mangalore after like 2 months with a good news. He had won the Regional level India's Skill competition and was selected for the National level competition. So as a Mark of celebrations, we visited the All New Pabbas Ideal Cafe at Bharat Mall, Mangalore. We had the special I-Thali.
A thali or rather a plate with different types of Ice cream. Starting from Vanilla Ice cream with Carrot halwa, there was 3 flavors of Ice cream, Strawberry, Black Berry and Anjur. We had the I-pizza caramel flavour, a marzi paan which was a part of the thali.
It was just delicious and one of the most creative concept ever. Not to forget we also had the Ideal cafe special Cutlet, that's a must there.
