My Obsession

I don't call it a week if I don't indulge in this addiction ( or call it as an obsession). Simply awesome in taste and make you come back again and again and again. The traditional Tamilnadu Ambur Biryani. My dinner for the second time in this week.

Solace to a burning stomach

After having some extra spicy chicken curry, this plain curd with sugar definitely has comforted  my tummy.
