Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() Last evening, after visiting a few Ganesh idols and wanting to eat a simple maggie meal at home, it turned out we had to stop enroute home at " Bowl O China", Himayathnagar for a quick meal. This was the first time i visited Bowl O China in Himayathnagar and was pleasantly surprised to enjoy some excellent quality chinese food. We ordered : Veg Tom Yum Soup : 2 No's ( Very Good) Veg Balls in Manchuria Sauce ( Excellent) Veg Noodles in Schezwan sauce ( Excellent) Veg Fried Rice ( Good) 2 Thumbs-up Total Damage : Rs.600 ~ As mentioned, I judge the quality of a chinese restuarant from :- a) How they lay the table b) Quality of Rice and Noodles Great place to dine out. However,their Fish and Prawn items are exorbitantly priced with Rs.225 being the cheapest Fish dish |

If you guys want, shall keep posting what I had for dinner each day. Kya karoon, for the first time, I would be having all the meals at home for the next 10 days. This is happening after a long long time. Day 1: Dahi Wada, Palak Pakoda, Patherweli (a leafy variant of Bhakarwadi, made in similar manner. Unlike the flour coating of Bhakarwadi, this has the outer coating made of Leafy vegetables & Flour. The batter is much the same), Besan Laddoo. Day 2: Aaloo Tikki, Aaloo Cutlets, Shejwan ki Daal & Hot off the pan Rotis. Day 3: Today ~eagerly waiting for dinner~ | |

This sounds exciting. I can imagine the type of fillings they must be using apart from the traditional ones ![]() Quote:

| ![]() ^^This eating at home subject got me thinking. At home, is it most likely "home cooked food" by a wife/mother, or by a "cook"? Just curious. Living in the US, home cooked is wife/mom, but when I think of the luxuries of India, one of those luxuries is the possibility of having a cook of some sort. Just curious how common it is in general.. BTW, I'm glad the Haleem talk seems to be over for the year/season. The last month I've been drooling over here more then usual reading this thread. ![]() Last edited by HPP : 14th September 2010 at 09:53. |

Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() We have a cook at home for nearly 2 years now. Some dishes, she makes fantastic with almost zero supervision but, to get same taste as your mom/wifey cooks, either of them have to be hovering around her with handful of tips/advices. ![]() |

Lucky you! I've been searching in vain for a cook. Got any suggestions? How much is the normal payment per month? |
