Gujju land - food & lassi galore !
Whereever u go, whatever u do..... U'll always find a restaurant within stone's throw in Ahmedabad. I'd heard a lot about Gujju passion for food, but am seeing real evidence of it now ;)
Every area we've been going seems to have ice cream aprlours, small hotels, sweet shops, etc. A lot of mobile van's dishing out fast food.... They come in the evenings to their particular part of the road, lay out the tables and chairs and in afew hrs have a thriving business....
All this said and with the heat being the way it is, we have been doing justice to the restaurants. We've stayed away from the 'shady' ones, and have predominantly ended up having lassi. Given my penchant for anything sweet and also my love for curds, lassi has been a fav drink over the ages. And here they make it as well as anywhere else. With Nari and Apra too having similar tastes, we've been eating out a fair bit. And its been lassi galore: lassi with lunch, snacks, and dinner..... :D
If not lassi, its been the next safe option - coke, maaza, etc. They are basically now a necessary evil ( someone say pesticide ? ) .
Oh, got to go now.... Lassi time ;)

Watch your waistline, though, Buddy. How about the Masala tea? I thought you got good ones of that too there.
