100% Pure Vegetarian Chinese Restaurant

Imagine how you would react if you found a restaurant serving only vegetarian chinese dishes, considering you are a pure vegetarian (no eggs ) type. I am sure that for a moment you would be really glad. Ashish was real glad when he did see such a restaurant in London. Finding a pure vegetarian restaurant in London and that too a pure vegetarian Chinese, was in itself a task worth being happy about.

He gladly peeked at the menu card and was horrified when he read this
1) Vegetarian Lamb fried rice
2) Vegetarian Chicken Hakka noodles
3) Vegetarian Chicken breast manchurian etc etc.

We had a good laugh together when we later discussed this. We assumed that it must be a joke where the restaurant must be serving lamb and chicken which are reared to be vegetarians.

On further investigation of this is when we realised that the fact is that the restaurant serves pure vegetarian food, where lamb and chicken and any part of their bodies are shaped out of soya and made to look like the former. It was then that we really understood what it means to have a pure vegetarian lamb fried rice in a chinese restaurant.

But it still beats my understanding capacity as to why would anyone want to eat lamb fried rice where the lamb is not lamb but a product of soya...would it not be more appropriate to eat vegetable fried rice or any such counterparts where you do not have to fool yourself....even if it means you are a non vegetarian person turning into a vegetarian.....

cheese and me

I wake up in the morning, not knowing exactly how many calories am I going to consume today.....I wake up with no notion of what a difficult situation I will face once I open the refrigerator....and there I am in front of my double door super cooling refrigerator gazing into the chiller compartment...where I have a load of cheese cubes, bought at different times from different grocery stores, my mind going in and out of the bliss the cheese can cause to my tongue, to my heart to my soul........wonderful...and then to the tyres that are forming around my waist....and I move away with a shock, like as if a nightmare just passed my mind....I say "No"......and I say so, i just move with a jiffy pick up a cheese cube and blob .....it goes straight into my mouth, through the neck to my tummy and I feel Wow....with my eyes still closed, i want to believe and pray that the cheese get unnoticed by the digestive juices and i do not have to be shocked in front of the scales the next day........

Thankfully yours...

If at all we did not have taste buds, imagine no hunger...imagine no longing for the tasty soups and spicy chats....life I am sure, would have been so so so boring....
Thanks God...you gave us taste, you gave us hunger and you gave us FOOD......
