"Panchvati"- The Gujurati Feast

Well,today aftr a heavy lunch of some excllent Chicken Dum Biryani(will be in another part of Biryani Dreams soon) and dozzing off in the noon, woke up to Vikram's Phone call abt the evening plans..

As it was alrdy late,we planned for a nearer place n met up at Vashi,Navi Mumbai for some shopping at Inorbit Mall.We were shortly joined by another good friend of mine, Kaushik, a comic character..
Shopping --> Unsuccesfull as always!!! ended up buying nothing.....
Also to mention,incidentally we were introduced to Kaushik's mom n dad who had come to the mall..

After a short while, we 3 ended up planning for the dinner at Kerala House,the malayali food which I love.....(well,tell me what I don't like!!!)
Ohh no!!!! It was full and we had to wait..Being impatient and coz of hunger..we decided for Bharat Tarachand, anthr exclnt hotel chain with tasty food..While these talks were on, Kaushik suggested Panchvati, a gujarati Hotel in Inorbit mall itself..So we were off to the place in a jiffy..

We were welcomed by a guy dressed in a traditional gujurati attire with a colourfull turban..

With big plates and katori's (mini vessel to hold curries and vegetables) in front of us,off came the innumerable waiters with various authentic guju dishes...we were served with Dokhlas,spicy Green and sweet red chutney,Dal,Khadi,dry Ladies finger, Panner curry,Potato Curry, an unknown vegetable curry :-) , Pattice, Chappathis, Bhaakri,Puri,Dahi Vada with excllnt dahi,spicy garlic and chilli chutney,Dal Kichdi with ghee, Rice with Dal,Pappad, Buttermilk, and for desserts, we had Sheera and Fruit Custard...

Have i left something!!! may be i have..

We ate all these with many servings as much as we wanted to our hearts content...oops,to our stomach's content!!!!

I just loved the taste..and not to forget,I had a lot of Fruit Custard(i luv it a lot!!!!)

Towards the end,our pace slowed down..I even suggested them that we can have a small walk around and be back to have more!!! :-)

We chit chatted for a long time with our other friends memories and jokes about them..I was like..unable to move my ass...well,all of us were in the same situation after such a heavy yummy and tasty food..(I said... may be we would need an ambulance to take us!!! )

At the end,it was a nice meal and fit to be tasted along wit Friends,Family and close ones...
