Friday Lunch
I had banana leaf for lunch at this restaurant called Inniras - the best banana leaf restaurant in town. :) Anyway, just wanted to blog bout' the mango lassi I had. Mango lassi is one of my fav drink. Just mango lassi and not other lassi like banana or strawberry lassi. Mango lassi can get me HIGH! I just love this drink so much. Whenever there is mango lassi, I will never be able to resist it. I just LOVE mango lassi. But I heard the best lassi in town is in another restaurant near a temple. I'll have to check that out one day.After lunch, we had this dessert called something like 'Payasam' or something like that. The dessert was yellow in color or rather it looked like mustard. What's in the dessert? Well there were cashew nuts, raisins, tiny grapes(I think so), some yellow cendol look-a-like..no idea what is that..Anyway, the dessert was good and it reminded me of something I have eaten before but I just couldn't think what it was. The dessert was on the house. According to my friend, every Friday in any Indian restaurant you get dessert for free.
Then, I started questionning him why? why Friday? Then, he said Friday is a holy day. Again..I asked what does the holy day gotta do with the free dessert. He again said that it's because is a holy day. Again, I can't seem to find the logic behind the holy day and the free dessert. So I finally concluded and said to him, "It has to be..they cooked the dessert to pray(just like the Chinese) then after the prayers, they would give out the dessert to the people so that the people who ate the dessert will be blessed." Haha! I think he was speechless with me!
I slept pretty early last night, I was really tired after hiking. Or was it the tau foo fa for dessert. I love dessert a lot. Cheesecake is still the #1 dessert! I think I can have dessert for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Just like someone I know would have chicken rice for all the 3 meals.
I will be going out in an hour time. Thinking of what to eat for lunch? Tough question...
Have a good weekend everyone!
