It’s a ritual with my family that we go out to a restaurant when I visit them. It is considered a big event because we have ALL our meals home. They are cooked from scratch. I am still amazed that my mom cooks 3 fresh meals a day. I love her food and can eat it to death.
On Dec 27 we visited a restaurant called Three Star. It is close to where we live in Kharghar. It was a very nice restaurant. It was air conditioned (yes, that’s a big deal). We live close to the sea and the mangroves so there are so many mosquitoes here. 4 mosquitoes found their way into the restaurant and really irritated us. I thought I had lost my mosquito killing skills living in Orlando but I’m happy to report that I still have it in me. I killed 2 of those rascals and the other 2 beat a hasty retreat when they realized they were no match for me. There are a couple of tricks to killing mosquitoes. One is that you never look them in the eye. The second is to fool them into carelessness. You let the mosquito sit on you for a few seconds. The thought of a hearty meal makes the mosquito so careless that it lets its guard down. That’s when you open the palm of your hand and whack yourself hard. Wham! And viola! You have a dead mosquito.
Once I got rid of the mosquito menace, the rest of the meal was very good. We ordered butter chicken, naan, daal and panner korma. The meal was delicious. We ended with some ice cream at the local ice cream shop.
