http://chili-chocolate.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 6, 2009. Oil-free Chicken 'Kali Mirch' Curry. That wicked layer of oil floating on Indian curries is now a thing of the past. It’s a brand new year, the perfect time to ‘…ring out the old, ring in the new’. So, break that stereotype – try this new recipe of ‘Oil-free Chicken. Gotta eat first, pictures later…. The lady won’t stop smiling all evening, I assure you. (I’m sure my lady-readers are loving this, for different reasons! 1 Marinate the chicken. Do this at least six hours in advance.

Chili Chocolate: ... of Tarkarli beach, the fresh catch and coastal cuisine
http://chili-chocolate.blogspot.com/2008/12/of-tarkarli-beach-fresh-catch-and.html
Monday, December 22, 2008. Of Tarkarli beach, the fresh catch and coastal cuisine. What does the term 'Malvani Cuisine' bring to mind? To me it's rich and spicy coconut-curried fish sitting on rice, with some crisp, fried prawns by the side along with a glass of tangy 'sol-kadhi'. And what if it is accompanied by the soothing sound of waves and a mug of chilled beer on Tarkarli beach? What does one say? It's not just food. it's an experience to be savored, the complete Malvani experience. It’s late...

Chili Chocolate: Don't miss Marafa
http://chili-chocolate.blogspot.com/2011/01/dont-miss-marafa.html
Tuesday, January 25, 2011. 8216;Don’t miss Marafa! 8217; is what my Lonely Planet – Kenya tells me about this geological phenomenon… and I couldn’t agree more! Here is why…. It’s a scenic drive with some pretty steep ups and downs. The sandstone existing in this area eroded over time, due to wind and rain to form this depression. The colors: milk, earth and blood. Eroding walls of the gorge. The erosion is continuous making the cliché, ‘change is constant’ super-apt here! We complete a circuit and arrive...

Chili Chocolate: Eastern State Penitentiary: the prison for repentance?
http://chili-chocolate.blogspot.com/2008/08/eastern-state-penitentiary-prison-for.html
Tuesday, August 12, 2008. Eastern State Penitentiary: the prison for repentance? Pen·i·tence – (noun) the state of being penitent; regret for one's wrongdoing or sinning; contrition; repentance. It is a cloudy morning in Philly, the second of my four-day sojourn. It has been drizzling intermittently but it has stopped raining now as we step out. Perfect weather to visit the Eastern state penitentiary - dry enough to walk around and grey enough for that aura of mystery! My heart begins to race. There ...

Chili Chocolate: July 2008
http://chili-chocolate.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 25, 2008. I like to think of myself as a bit of a gypsy and a bit of a traveling bard at heart. I find traveling and moving from one place to another most exciting. My ideal is a world without borders and boundaries. My hometown is Bombay (I like to call it that! I don’t live by too many rules. But I'm very rigid about one thing i.e. NOT being rigid. Links to this post. Tuesday, July 15, 2008. The Crystal Caves of Bermuda. Pictures capture its beauty. not completely. It is a guided tour and ...

Chili Chocolate: New Look for Chili Chocolate
http://chili-chocolate.blogspot.com/2008/08/new-look-for-chili-chocolate.html
Friday, August 22, 2008. New Look for Chili Chocolate. Brad Pitt does it for almost every role. So does Aamir Khan, closer home in India. Now Chili Chocolate decides to follow suit, so cheers for a new look. Yippee! No, the reason for changing is not so trivial – I’m not even close to suggesting that Mr Pitt or Mr Khan get a new image for frivolous reasons. Of course it’s to get under the skin of the character. – But it is not change for the sake of change! 8220;So what’s the big deal about it? However, ...
