Default Car and driver in Bangalore, India

Are you a veggie fare fan at all? I love dosas, and tried it at various
places which I guess people would normally avoid. But I figured as long as
I drank bottled water, I should be okay, and I was.


My experience of India is that you use the places the respectable Indians
are using and you won't go far wrong. The street places vary hugely from
the lethal to the clean and excellent and I can't spot which is which, but
my wife, who is Indian, can spot a dud selling instant 'Bombay bum'
without any difficulty at all...

Dosa places tend to be reasonably clean because the dosa batter is fermented
and any contamination means it doesn't work properly.

But I have yet to work out how to eat a 'paper dosa' in an elegant manner...

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
Barbeques on fire by the chalets past the castle headland
I watched the gift shops glitter in the darkness off the Newborough gate
All these moments will be lost in time, like icecream on the beach
Time for tea.
