Legacy called Madhorao...

A recently opened restaurant in Ahmedabad is one of the most recommended places where I felt few ingredients which were quite unique.... Apart from warmth which the place exudes in ample, there is lot of space, antique woven chairs, vintage style furniture which goes in line with the theme of traditional food. Tradition and generation goes hand, it is the generation today responsible to carry forth our tradition.. Madhorao is the right model of the statement. 

Wall of Fame - Chaitanya Dalvi 
Chaitanya Dalvi, the man behind this venture mentioned, "The name, dedicated to my father and recipes are inspired by my mother, is what Madhorao all about. Being Goan by origin, I always wanted to present something unique on the culinary map of Ahmedabad. Hence, decided to serve traditional Maharashtran cuisine that too in bronze tableware adds to the authenticity of the culinary experience. Colonial furniture with spaced out tables are intended to give more comfort and privacy to the diners."

What I tried:  

1. Mocktail - Kokum Sharbat, a natural ingredient available in Maharashtra and well known for its cooling properties. Best for summers.



2. Kothmir Vadi: Delicately fried starter loaded with fresh coriander (kothmir), mixed with gram flour and peanuts as base, flavoured lightly with condiments. This tops the menu amidst hot favorites.



3. Goan Xitachi Bhakhri: A local bread of Goan origin made out of Konkani Rice flour mixed with coconut and lots of cumin (jeera), fried to perfection and served piping hot. This crispy crunchy filler can fit in anywhere, as a starter or side dish. 

Goan Xitachi is a creation of Sushma Dalvi, Chaitanya's Mom....Hence, a must try!!

4. Bharli Vangi: Brinjals stuffed with coconut paste, peanuts and spices served with Puris and Khamang kakdi (cucumber salad)




5. Puranpoli : Well known, age old favorite sweet bread stuffed with yellow lentils paste mixed with jaggery and flavours, shallow fried in desi ghee.. Something then to just grab on and bite upon!! 


6. Mohan Thal: Again, gram flour roasted in desi ghee, sweetened with jaggery and loaded with nuts is a must have!!


Madhorao is spread over an expanse of two floors, located at Prahlad Nagar.
Avg cost per person : Rs. 150/- to 300/-

Child makes a mother and mother a child - Not the gender

7th January, 2017 - In yet another initiative of prenatal and post natal health, Sanidhya Hospital at South Bopal organised an awareness drive. A fun filled day where expecting mothers were invited to gather know how of many of their queries which remain either unanswered or leave them confused with too many inputs which are given by friends or relatives. Dr. Archana Shah, gynaecologist and infertility specialist at Sanidhya Hospital mentioned, "this effort has been especially taken to educate the would be mothers who in today's age of nuclear families have no one to mentor them. Generally when expecting mothers arrive for consultation, which is of few minutes only, they have a list of queries which too need addressed with care and patience, hence we arrived at a better fun-filled and holistic solution to their requirement." "Mommies Day Out" as the workshop is christened had sessions on breast feeding, yoga, labour management and foot spa. The che

The Kastoori of Agriculture and it's women

Saturday 22nd June 2019: Agriculture, call it a tradition, an occupation or being part of the nature and our existence with it!! Just like Kastoori or the musk is within the deer, but it keeps hunting outside, similar is with our Agriculture sector. It had always been our primary resource, but we complicated the same hunting outside, making farmers dependant on complex and manipulative processes. We all know that various climatic and financial factors with overburdened chemical dependency has made this sector gloomy, turning down into a compounded cyclical process which has now started affecting the urban too; giving the realisation to human race now to bridge the gap between the two. Farmer suicides and pesticides in food chain with increase in cancer cases is just the tip of the iceberg. Purvi Vyas, Mentor WGWLO & Babita Jain Chair person FLO With such an initiative Ficci FLO Ahmedabad on 21st June, organised an event Coordinated by Shilpa patel , Kinnery Sh
