It was an amazing experience to visit a small homely restaurant tucked away in corners of Khan Market in Delhi. Menu was exotic to say the least. Italian, traditional British, Mexican, Lebanese, Thai, Indonesian, Vietnamese et al. A delight to see such a choice and that too in a city where chaat rules. All this was enough for one to get excited. Food ordered - it was great. Speciality of the food was tampering with Indian spices and to please the Indian buds. Purists may call this "scxxxxxx" the recipe but I call this customisation. On asking, chef did say that he can offer authentic tastes only if you ask. And majority does not ask. Easy to lambast a small restaurant but look around what large multinationals have learnt from The Indian Maze.

Moving on from the core theme of only consumers to a broader Indian complexity. An amazing country that can be challenging to understand due to its diversity - economically, socially, linguistically, racially and what not. Enjoy the THALI as they say....
