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/-

Dubai - The Greener Pastures

Its not just Oil and Gold, a New world economy, booming and buzzing, attracting all global markets to buy home, setup business and live in a place which is now the new Centre of attraction, to setup Global Headquarters. The Millenial tower - Burj Al Arab  Indians have forgotten Canada and US (seems so..) especially after the setting up new Trump norms... so where do all heads turn and why? 1. Distance : Travel time from Delhi to Dubai is 3.5 hours and if we talk about Gujarat, Punjab, Kerala and Maharashtra they are geographically more towards the west, therefore the travel time to The Emirates is even lesser than any other Indian town on the extreme corner. Therefore, Dubai travel is cost effective and easily accessible. 2. Visa : Relaxed norms with consultants from both countries growing in numbers to assist Indians settle in Dubai, both for entrepreneurs and job seekers. 3. Population : Potential of any economy to thrive lies in its people, Population thus holds biggest Poten...

Upcycle Concrete

  Upcycle is an interesting "GREEN" practice nowadays followed by many!! For goods and commodities its good, but in the era of shifting sands, preferences, fast evolutionary changes, the need and demand for more excitement the malls, unlike old markets, have a very short life span. A decade is quite long, then they slowly organically fade out. Ahmedabad, unlike the metros is quick silver. The life span of malls is shorter than those in metros.. few which have swept off infront of our eyes in two decades are; Gulmohar, Fun Republic, Gallops etc. Gallops though with best brands, infrastructure couldn't survive the cost concious market. Two days ago I happened to step into Iscon mega Mall, Mega like the word suggests, its gigantic. Reliance hyper market was inaugurated on 15th August 2006 by Sh Mukesh Ambani, it was his big bang entry into retail segment. In this mega structure, today hardly 10% area is functional, rest is all unused.  If Westside and Reliance are functional...
