Indian cuisine...delicious!!!!!!

When I was in India last year everybody warned me, despite the fact that most people's knowledge about this country was based on programs they saw on Discovery Channel or National Geographic, which is not a bad thing per se but one should at least have some in depth first-hand experience about one thing, before advising this travelling man about what food to eat and what places to avoid. While I was waiting at the boarding hall at the airport ready to take the flight to New Delhi the Turkish equivalent of the Red Cross had placed a banner offering travellers vaccines against malaria, which could scare off the fırst-time traveller but not me! No sir, not me! What vaccine? ain't no mosquito in India that's going to dare to even land on me. By the way, speaking of mosquitos...I saw a funny card somewhere the other day it said: ' I sprayed mosquito repellent on a mosquito. Now he'll never have any friends. ' Ha, ha! That was funny. Mosquitos are funny insects. Can you imagine that the West Nile Virus killed over 250 people in 2012 in the U.S? Now that is indeed some scary shit. And for them ignorants out there...as you see WNV is not only present in Africa eh?
This comes to me as no surprise but did you know that only female mosquitos bite? next time a mosquito tries to bite me the term bitch-slap's gonna get a whole new meaning heeellyahh!
So, coming back to my story, not that I have an interesting story to tell here, I'm just babbling randomly about the places I've been. anyways, so there I am in New Delhi with all the stories in my back head, warnings about the famous delhi-belly and I was welcomed by one of my Indian clients, who was a really friendly guy. As a principle I try to have an open mind about different cultures and their habits. When I'm in a new city one thing that I'm curious about is where the locals eat. So I told Rajesh that I didn't want have that tourist crap just because I'm an effin' tourist but then again I didn't want to get diarrhea or something. So he promised me to take me to quality restaurants where I could enjoy the finest Indian cuisine without getting ripped off. And what a feast that was! I'm a friend of spices of any sorts and I must say the food I ate there was exactly what I wanted. One day he took me to Karim's Restaurant, which is near to the Jama Masjid. We had meat, meat, meat in spicy sauces! Delicious Mughlai food accompanied by onions and some white bread. Nothing else. The tandoori chicken, the mutton burrah, chicken tikka...my mouth is watering as I'm writing these lines. DELICIOUS!!
I stayed there for a week and while somedays we ate at the hotel restaurant, we stayed at the Intercontinental, where the food was a mixture of European and Indian cuisine one day we went to another fine restaurant called the Chor Bizarre. First, the interior design of this restaurant is marvellous but the food is even better.

( No, this picture is not from the restaurant but I that's all I got in my archives so deal with it !!)

Seldom have I been served better food than here. All the egzotic dishes, gazap ka tikka, chicken khurchan, tikka masala etc.  So anyone visiting Delhi in the near future..go and eat at those splendid restaurants.  You won't regret it. Next time I'll tell you about my eating experience in Astana/Kazakhstan. But now I'm tired of typing....so bugger of!!
