Chef Harmeet in Grand Oberoi, Kolkata, offered me this wonderfully tasty Prince's Omelette in breakfast, yesterday. Atop this golden yellow boat-shaped Omelette, sat this beautiful white sauce of cream & cheese with chunks of sautéed chicken, parsley and pepper. Even without disturbing the sauce, if you cut the corner for a bite, the Omelette inside was soft, fluffy and multi layered. Was extra moist and glazed from inside. It was like melt in mouth. Very tasteful, soft and creamy. Made a good start to my hectic day ahead.

I have stayed in Grand Oberoi, Kolkata, quite a few times. During the morning breakfast, in their Coffee Shop, this young Chef Harmeet makes your day. You can see him moving from table to table and asking guests their choices and warmly taking care of them. About a couple of years ago, he approached me too in his professional routine. Both being from North India, Punjabi and both having love for food, instantly struck the cord between us. Now, my no breakfast in Grand is complete without him chatting with me for a while and offering me something different, every time. Given his skills in the kitchen and his skills to connect with his guests, he will soon be a celeb chef.

One of the best savoury item for timepass

In Hyderabad, my early evening hunger pangs invited a plate of Fish & Chips at ITC, Kakatiya. Scrumptious snacking. Crunchy outside and soft and juicy inside. Went quite well with the tartar sauce.

On my every trip to Kolkata, I must bring back minimum two bags of Ujjala Chanachur. It is normal namkeen mixture you get almost every where, in Delhi too. However, you get that quality there only. Even after three weeks (if at all it lasts that long), it remains as crispy as ever. Family loves it and looks forward to it every time. It is a small shop on the main road and makes only this. At any given time, you would find quite a few people awaiting their turn to buy. Crispy, long shelf life, low on oil, always fresh #MagicofFlavours

100 Percent Certified Angus Beef

There are so many varieties of beef one can eat while travelling overseas. However, the premium meat in this category is Angus. It's succulent and melt in your mouth, something hard to imagine with something like beef. Ate this beauty in New York. It was the first beef burger I ate after I landed and that feeling is always next level. You know that feeling you get when you've really anticipated waited to eat something your like. They served it on an angle so that the burger is served open and all the great colours could be seen. Just yum.

Enjoyed this amazing snack of ragda patties (Aloo tikki with chana) & a delicately flavoured dessert on board Vistara Kolkata-Delhi flight this evening. Melt in mouth tikkis complemented by a stew of peas (Matara) and Indian sauce brought back memories of childhood street food.
