From the Queen's heart and the bullet darts

Getting off on a hot Sunday in the month of June when the temperatures soar to 45 degree celcius, enthusiastic bloggers and some entrepreneurs under guidance of Anil Mulchandani set off on two extremely off beat experiences. One to a shooting range and the other to a Maratha Royal food sojourn at Madhav Bagh.

1. Misirote farm is run by Sardar Ishwar Singh and Sardarni Gyaneshwari, who also manage Savli Taluka Rifle Association. The farm set amidst a rural backdrop is an eco friendly get away which also imparts residency certificate courses in Rifle shooting. They have high end computer integrated, voice simulated trap shooting range. S. Ishwar Singh has been instrumental in promoting trap shooting in India as a sport.
Misirote is a two hour drive from Ahmedabad, it is located in Parthampura on banks of Mahi river. The place is a good option for day picnics or weekend stays.

2. Madhav Bagh: the Indo British Royal Mansion now has four rooms ready for tourists to experience peace and regal feel. All four palatial rooms are designed in different themes; if not this.. you can experience the cuisine from the Queen's kitchen which cooked under an elaborate process oriented way. Maharani Indrani Gaekwad, who hails from Kolhapur has unique recipes which have trickled down since generations.

A four course Royal meal can be prepared by pre- booking.

What we had: Aam Panna, Soup with Sunti ( a delicacy made of ground meat rolled into balls along with spices), Parsandi, Bharalai Kombadi (stuffed chicken), Chicken Rajvilasi Rasa, Bharlali Wangi (stuffed brinjals in black masala), Dahi Bhindi, Masoor and Kaju Rasa, Narali Bhat, and Shahi tukda.

Along with a culinary sojourn you can meet Maharaja Shivraj Singh to share more stories of the Royal Gharana...

PS: Misriote Farm and Madhav Bagh are Gold Standard home stays certified by Gujarat Government.

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.
