Mix n match

Sophistication is generally the last thing on my mind when I am indulging in good food especially when I am at home.I have no qualms about mixing yellow dal with hot garlic chicken when the gravy becomes too hot or having chappatis with a chinese dish.
Now you must be wondering whether I possess the taste buds of an alien- but being a Bengali I am habituated to all kinds of tastes-sweet,sour,bitter,hot.So what's appalling to you is routine to me.

However you normally do not get dosas and Chinese dishes at the same restaurant.Hence my experiments with food had to be stopped once outside home.

Not Any More.

The name "mix n match" which was earlier associated only with clothes has now penetrated the realm of food as well.
You can forget all about culinary etiquette and mix South Indian dishes with Chinese cuisine-don't worry nobody's going to raise their eyebrows at you.Mix n match is the new mantra today,thanks to the food marts in the malls-where you get all kinds of cuisines.Now I can have a bland sandwich dipped in sambhar to get over its blandness.Almost any kind of permutation-combination is possible owing to this concept of getting everything under one roof.

I can therefore blissfully encourage my "barbaric" eating habits and summon the gastronomic juices to help me gulp down.

Happy eating!
