Another day, another batatawada (or two )
Ganpati (the festival celebrating the elephant-headed god of the same name) may be the biggest festival of the year for Mumbai (and Maharashtra), and it started yesterday (well, today was day 1 but the idols arrived yesterday) and goes for 8 days.
Visiting mode means snacks at each stop.
Today’s eats were South Indian plus at the first stop (mini millet idlis, Szechuan cheese dosas, dahi wadas, dhoklas, a cheese board, and assorted sweets) and my great-aunt’s specialty of batatawadas (and tea) at the second stop.
.
Then we picked up North Indian favorites for dinner — butter chicken, chicken malai kabab, paneer bhurji (ie scramble), rumali (handkerchief) roti, and naan. So, so good
