This is a Khichda. We wanted another straight away!

A dish of mutton and dal mixed mixed with pounded wheat and topped with burnt onion, slices of garlic & coriander.

Khari: crispy pastry thingy's.

Taj Ice Cream

This was the best ice cream, home made that day. Mango & Sitaphal.

Bendi Bazaar: An afternoon adventure to find the best street food in town.

We went on a trip to an obscure and far flung part of Mumbai city after buying a timeout where they reviewed the area's street food. After wondering around for 30mins and getting lost and people staring at us and Jess worrying as she hadn't brought a shawl in a predominantly Muslim area this is what we found. This is a Baidi Roti and god damn was it good.

Mumbai

So we enter the hustle & bustle of city life.

A quick scrub before work!

Elephant's Stables

Hampi's finest

Narasimha

Half man half lion, Narasimha is an avatar of Vishnu.

On a pilgrimage

If people don't want to take your picture then they want you to take there's.  These young men that were on a pilgrimage to Hampi kindly obliged.

Row Your Boat

Young entrepreneurship is incredible in India. A group of young lads built rafts out of bamboo and palm leaves and charged people 8 quid to go 15 minutes down the river!
