  1. Akka,
    As soon as I reached this blog (thanks to Sowmya), I skimmed through all the recipes at once.
    I will try these recipes one by one when I go home.
    Needless to say, the write-up, and the pics are aesthetic.
    Moreover, I liked your quote very much - "Preparation of good food is merely another expression of art, one of the joys of civilized living.". True. True. True.
    Eagerly waiting for more and more new recipes.
